• If all connections are enabled, they display as black lines.

Changing persisted fabrics
When you merge two persisted fabrics, the fabric whose principal switch is also the principal switch
in the merged fabric becomes the real fabric. It includes the switches of both fabrics in the Physical
Map and the Product List. The other fabric becomes a ghost fabric.
On the Physical Map, the ghost fabric shows its original products with minus symbols (
Figure 55 ).
On the Product List, the ghost fabric is shown as offline without products. The fabric log resets after
the fabrics merge.
When you split merged fabrics, the fabric that includes the principal switch becomes the persisted
fabric.
When you move a product in a persisted fabric’s topology, the new location is stored on the client.
If the updated fabric is not persisted, users logged in from a different client can show an invalid
layout.
Configuring trap forwarding
Trap forwarding enables you to configure the application to send SNMP traps to other computers.
To configure trap reporting, you must configure the target computer’s IP address and SNMP ports:
1. Select Monitor > Trap Forwarding.
