Starting SANsurfer
In order to use the Switch management application:
1. Open and start SANsurfer.
For a SANbox switch as the Fabric Management Switch:
a. Open the web browser and type: http://<switch name or IP address>/
The IP Address is either the one configured into the Switch chassis or the
default (10.0.0.1) configured at the factory. If the chassis still contains the
default IP Address, the Management Station must be directly connected to
the chassis with an Ethernet cross-over cable.
b. Observe that the Login dialog box shown in Figure 2-1 appears.

NOTE:
The SANsurfer application is embedded in the SANbox memory. It will not
launch from a chassis that is inoperable, such as a chassis with a Flash
Checksum error. Therefore if SANsurfer was launched prior to the Switch
failure, or if SANsurfer is launched from another chassis that is operable, it is
possible to load new Flash code in a failed switch. If SANsurfer is not
operable, use TFTP to load new Flash code.
