Launching the Management Utility
To access your MSA Fabric Switch 6 using the Management Utility, you must
configure it with an IP address using the Array Configuration Utility-XE (ACU-XE),
as described in the section titled “Configuring your IP address," and be connected to
an IP network. Once configured, use the following procedure to launch the utility:
1. Use Compaq Insight Manager (CIM XE) or enter the IP address of the switch
you want to manage into the web browser’s address box.
2. Once the Utility is launched, enter the SNMP “Read Community” and “Write
Community” strings into the appropriate test boxes.
NOTE: These strings are case-sensitive.
3. Click the OK button.

NOTE: If the display properties on your computer system are set to “256 colors,” the
Community Strings window will appear patterned and unclear. Change your display properties
setting to either “True Color (32 bit)” or “High Color (16 bit)” for a sharp, clear image. You will
find the display properties setting under Start\Settings\Control Panel\Display\Settings or
right-click your desktop and select Active Desktop\Customize\Settings.
