Flow Generator example procedures

The following examples describe how to work with Flow Generator flows.
Creating a flow from a specific source to a specific destination
The following example creates a generator flow, as shown in
FIGURE 512
To create a generator flow between a specific source and a specific destination, complete the
following steps.
1. Create two SIM-Ports
2. Right-click an initiator SIM-Port in the Product List and select Fabric Vision > Flow > Add.
