Chapter 11. Cisco initial setup
In this chapter, we introduce the Cisco MDS 9000 Family of Fibre Channel
switches and directors, focusing on the Cisco MDS 9216i. We describe the initial
setups required and the process to install and activate the Cisco Fabric Manager
client GUI and the Cisco Device Manager client GUI.

Note: We used Cisco Multilayer intelligent SAN operating system (SAN-OS)
Version 3.0(2a) for all our testing. If your SAN-OS level is different, some of the
panels might not look the same. However, the concepts introduced here
should still apply.
