Getting Started
To use SANsurfer, connect the management station to the Switches’ Ethernet inter-
face. Refer to the “Ethernet Cabling” on page 1-3 and “Configuring the Ethernet
Port Using SANsurfer” on page 1-5 for detailed procedures.
Installing SANsurfer on a Management Station
Before managing MKII Switches with SANsurfer, you must install the application
on your management station.
Even though the SANsurfer application is embedded in SANbox Switches, you
may also manage SANbox Switches with the SANsurfer application installed on a
management station. Even if not installing the complete application on the
management station, it is necessary to run the admin.htm file to create files on the
management station which are needed during logging into the application.
1. Move the files from the distribution media (CD, tape, diskette, or Internet) to
your management station. You must place these files on the hard drive in a
directory that your HTTP server can access.
2. Highlight the admin.htm file and execute it (double-click on it). Executing
this file installs the application.
As the application installs, the system will display the QLogic Corporation
Administration version screen and the SANsurfer/WEBGUI Installation
Utility window.
