After reloading a switch in SmartFabric mode, it takes about 2 minutes after the login prompt displays at the switch CLI for SFS to come up and for the web UI to be fully functional. The IPv4 address of the master may be determined by running show smartfabric cluster from the CLI of any switch in the SmartFabric.
- From a workstation with access to the OOB management network, use a browser to connect to the management IP address of the master switch,
https://switch_mgmt_ip_address
.Note: If you connect to a switch in the fabric that is not the master, a link to the master is provided in the web UI. - Log in as admin.
Once logged into the master, the SFS UI Home page shows the leaf-spine topology and configured uplinks. For the example used in this guide, it appears as shown in the figure below.
