I started a new job as a systems engineer not too long ago and am looking for a way to get comfortable with FOS as I’ve never had to manage FC switches before. Anyone know of a way to emulate it, or should I just resign myself to buying an old switch on ebay and throwing it in the rack?
You must log in or register to comment.
The Brocade documentation is pretty good. Which switches do you have? You can use the web gui to do a lot of the administration. If you have older ones, you may have to install an older version of Java Web Start or Open WebStart.
You could probably pick up an old Brocade 300 for cheap.
My problem with FC switches is that you mostly set it and forget it, but then something happens and you have to re-remember the syntax; usually because something broke.
