For people who are not comfortable configuring their Brocade switches from the Terminal, it is possible to configure it using the GUI interface and Java on your Mac.
You need Java 7 for this to work. I used Java 7 update 79 on OS X Yosemite and was able to configure a Brocade 6500 switch with no issues. Java 8 will NOT work.
Step 1. Go to System Preferences and click on the “Java” pane.
Step 2. Go to the “Security” tab and add an entry for your brocade switch to the exceptions list.
Step 3. Quit System Preferences when done.
Step 4. Launch “Terminal” and enter the command below.
NOTE: Change the IP address to the IP address of your Brocade Switch.
javaws http://192.168.5.10/switchExplorer_installed.html
This will launch the Java runtime environment and you will be able configure the switch from your Mac.
