Open Systems Management Server

The Open System Management Server (OSMS) is a keyed feature that allows host
control and inband management of the Director or Switch through a management
application that resides on an open-systems interconnection (OSI) device. This device
is attached to a Director or Switch port. The device communicates with the Switch or
Director through Fibre Channel common transport (FC-CT) protocol.
