Abstract:
Examples include fabric management devices. Some examples include a fabric management device to manage a network fabric. The fabric management device comprises a serial interface to connect to a network device of the network fabric that provides power and data to the fabric management device, a processing resource, and a machine-readable storage medium with instructions executable by the processing resource. The machine-readable storage medium comprises instructions establish communication across the serial interface with the network device via a fabric management device driver, discover a topology of the network fabric, wherein the network fabric comprises a plurality of network devices, and monitor a set of network performance metrics of the plurality of network devices. The machine-readable storage medium further comprises instructions to dynamically configure the network fabric based on the set of network performance metrics.
