In Firefox when you launch the shortcut you’ll get asked what app to use for opening this file. I think we can all agree we should go for https in this day and age. You’ll need to add http or https or both depending on your situation. Leave the security at high but don’t forget to add the IP addresses of your Brocade switch to the Exception Site List. Make sure Enable Java Content in the browser is enabled. You need to go to Java configuration and select the Security Tab. Below is a screenshot of my Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016 (Desktop Experience) management station.īut we’re not there yet. On the management station, I add them to the desktop for easy access. I just place then under C:\Programdata\BrocadeFC for safe keeping together with a cop of the short cuts. I actually created some ico files based on an image of brocades Fibre Channel switches that I use for this. I normally change the icon to the shortcut to indicate it’s pointing to a network device. Instead of navigating to http or https to just the IP address which will send you to you need to create a shortcut link to the following: (or if you have not enabled https on your switch). I can’t give guarantees other than that, but for now that does work. At the moment that I wrote this blog post that was Java 1.8.0.121. It’s OK to use the most recent Java version available. Manage Your Brocade Fibre Channel Switch with recent Java & browser versions Well not all of them, but it can be done with IE 11 and Firefox 52.0.1 (at the time of writing).Īnother solution is to use the CLI naturally. We’ll show you how to get GUI access to your FC switches without needing to do that so you can manage your Brocade Fibre channel switch with recent Java & browser versions. With the default setting and links this will give you some headaches and some solution require you to keep older and insecure browser or java versions installed. That station needed to be used to manage some aging Brocade fibre channel switches. The guest was also Windows Server 2016 (desktop install). I was in the process of setting up a new jump server a management station server virtual machine on Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V.
