The default path for Windows is C:\Documents and Settings\<<user>>\Webtools\<log file>.
The default path for Linux is /root/WebTools/<switch log file>.
A zipped-up SupportSave folder is saved in the defined location. SupportSave zip file name
format is "WT-SS-switchIP-dd-mm-yy-hh-mm-ss.zip". The SupportSave file name will show the
VF ID if VF is enabled on the switch.
In a pure IPv6 environment, you must configure your DNS maps to the IPv6 address of the
switch.
The switch name is required to match the DNS name that is mapped to the IPv6 address.
If both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are configured, Web Tools can be launched using any
configured IP address.
Use a switch with v5.3.0 or later firmware to manage a mixed fabric of IPv4 and IPv6 switches.
Switches running on v5.2.0 do not discover IPv6 address-only switches in the same fabric until
the IPv4 address is configured.
