management port that is used to connect the control unit to a management
console, usually a laptop PC. It an be connected directly or via a Local Area
Network (LAN). The management port accepts either a cross-over cable for
direct connections to the management port or a straight-through cable if
connecting to the management port through a switch.
Using the management console, you can configure and manage an AMS
2100/2300 array using the Navigator 2 storage management software on
the CD that is supplied with the hardware. You can also use the storage
