EZSwitchSetup software and hardware requirements

NOTE
Although your switch may have advanced capabilities, EZSwitchSetup is for a single-switch fabric
with FC ports only. To configure and manage other features on your switch, use the command line
interface, Web Tools, or Brocade Network Advisor.

part of the SAN, such as a laptop.

the host.
