Hiding Routes Between Two End-Products
NOTE
This feature is only available for fabrics consisting solely of manageable products (refer to Table 22
Product Icons on page 243).
You can use the Hide Route feature to hide routes that Fibre Channel frames must take between
two end-products in a multiswitch fabric. You must show routes before you can hide routes. For
instructions, refer to “Showing Routes Between Two End-Products” on page 165.
To hide the route, right-click the route (line between end-nodes), or the fabric that includes the
route you want to hide and select Hide Route.
