The easiest way to communicate with the ATTO FibreBridge is to use the browser-based interface, ATTO
ExpressNAV. Your FibreBridge must be recognized by the network by finding or assigning it an IP
address. ATTO ExpressNAV is not available for the ATTO FibreBridge 1180.
FibreBridge 2400
The FibreBridge 2400 is set up by default to
request an IP address from a DHCP server. If you
do not have a DHCP server to assign IP addresses
to devices, get an IP address from your network
administrator and continue with the section
models (except FB 1180, 2400)
When using DHCP, the QuickNAV utility, from
the CD included with your FibreBridge, finds
your FibreBridge on your network.
