Connect to the SmartFabric UI

Connect to the SmartFabric UI

    1. From a workstation with access to the OOB management network, use a browser to connect to the management IP address of either leaf switch by navigating to  https://switch_mgmt_ip_address .
    2. Log in as admin.
      Note: After reloading the switches, it takes a few minutes for SFS to come up and for the UI to be fully functional.

      Note: The SFS UI supports Chrome, Firefox, and Edge browsers. Languages other than English are not supported at this time.

      All web UI configuration is done on the SFS master switch. If you connect to an SFS switch that is not the master, a link to the master is provided. This is outlined in red in the picture below.

    3. If applicable, click on the link provided to go to the master switch, and log in as admin.
      Note: The IPv4 address of the SFS master may also be determined by running  show smartfabric cluster  from the CLI of any switch in the SmartFabric. The master is always a leaf switch, never a spine. Only one leaf switch in the SmartFabric will have ROLE set to MASTER. The remaining leafs will have ROLE set to BACKUP.

      When connected to the SFS master switch, the UI appears, as shown in the figure below.

    4. Optionally, you can hover over each switch (or node) and the VLTi link to view additional information, as shown in Figure 15 and Figure 16.
