Network manageability

The Brocade DCX 8510-8 has a single domain and is managed as a single element with Brocade
Network Advisor. The Brocade DCX 8510-8 responds to its own IP address and appears as a separate
entity to the Telnet protocol and SNMP.

All management interfaces, such as Telnet, Web Tools, standards-compliant SMI-S, and Management
Server, support a "port N within blade M" naming scheme.

The Brocade DCX 8510-8 supports SNMPv1 and SNMPv3. When SNMP devices send SNMP
messages to a management console running SAN management software, the information is stored in a
management information base (MIB). Fabric OS v7.0.0 and later supports the latest Fibre Alliance Fibre
Channel Management (FCMGMT) and Storage Management Initiative (SMI) MIBs, which allow
common information necessary for management software to provide information to a SAN
administrator. Refer to the Fabric OS MIB Reference for additional MIB information.
