Brocade Communications Systems 8Gb SAN Switch User instructions

The Brocade 8Gb SAN Switch for HP BladeSystem c-Class delivers an easy to manage embedded Fibre Channel switch with 8 Gbps

performance. The Brocade 8Gb SAN Switch hot-plugs into the back of the HP BladeSystem c-Class Enclosure. The integrated design

frees up rack space, enables shared power and cooling, and reduces cabling and small form-factor pluggables. Enhanced trunking

support with external switches provides higher bandwidth to enable demanding applications such as server virtualization. New

features in the Power Pack+ option enable you to manage data flow to maintain optimized application performance. The 12 or 24

auto-sensing ports support lower bandwidth components for investment protection and an upgrade license enables you to 'pay as

you grow'. The Brocade 8Gb SAN Switch saves space and cost, significantly simplifies the SAN environment, enables easier

deployment and management, and delivers the performance required for emerging higher throughput applications.

Brocade Access Gateway, a feature enabled in Fabric OS v5.2.1b and later, enables Brocade

embedded SAN switches to interoperate with other SAN fabrics running supported firmware. While in

Brocade Access Gateway mode, the device must also be connected to an NPIV-enabled edge switch or

director. Supported edge environments are listed in the Brocade Fabric OS® release notes.

Advanced Zoning

Advanced ZoningAdvanced Zoning

Advanced Zoning

Zoning (Port and Worldwide Name), as well as Access Control, are enforced by hardware within the

ASIC that provides the same simple administration previously enforced only with software. Hardware

enforcement enables the highest level of zoning enforcement without any impact to performance.

Administrators can organize a physical fabric into logical groups and prevent unauthorized access by

devices outside the Zone.

WebTools

WebToolsWebTools

WebTools

- included in

Brocade Fabric OS

Enables organizations to monitor and manage single Fibre Channel switches and monitor small SAN

fabrics. Tasks can be performed through a Java-capable Web browser from a standard laptop, desktop

PC or workstation from any location within the enterprise.

EGM

EGMEGM

EGM

Enhanced Group Management (EGM) is a FOS license that is included with all B-Series switches and

enables multi-switch operations. It helps automate operations across multiple switches to save time and

streamline repetitive operations, which are typically prone to error. EGM drives consistency across

fabrics, while minimizing the risk associated with potential downtime due to configuration mismatches.

EGM provides streamlined troubleshooting for more effective fabric monitoring and diagnosis.

Both Data Center Fabric Manager Professional and Enterprise enable EGM functionality. Customers

have EGM functionality enabled within the hardware product and need only to make the decision around

which management application is right for them - Data Center Fabric Manager Professional or

Enterprise.

Dynamic Path Selection

included in Brocade Fabric

Secure Fabric OS features have been fully integrated into the base Fabric OS since v5.3.0. These

comprehensive security features for SAN fabrics provide policy-based security protection for more

predictable change management, assured configuration integrity and reduced risk of downtime. Security

methods supported include digital certificates and digital signatures, multiple levels of password

protection, strong password encryption and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)-based authentication, and

128-bit encryption of the switch's private key used for digital signatures. These features enable

organizations to customize SAN security to meet specific policy requirements and work in conjunction

with Advanced Zoning to further secure access to the SAN, simplify storage management, and reduce

provisioning time.

This suite of tools optimizes fabric behavior and ensures ample bandwidth for mission-critical

applications. The tools currently include Quality of Service (QoS), Ingress Rate Limiting, Traffic Isolation,

and Top Talkers. By assigning zones a high, medium, or low priority, QoS allocates bandwidth in the

event of congestion to expedite high-priority traffic and keep all traffic flowing. Ingress Rate Limiting

restricts data flow from less-critical hosts at preset bandwidths. Traffic Isolation assigns high-bandwidth

data flows to specific ISLs. And Top Talkers measures the top bandwidth-consuming traffic in real time for

a specific physical or virtual device, or end to end across the fabric.

ISL Trunking

ISL TrunkingISL Trunking

ISL Trunking

For high performance and seamless failover, this optional license logically groups up to eight E-ports

(switch mode) or F-ports (Access Gateway mode) to provide a high bandwidth trunk between two

Brocade or HP StorageWorks B-Series switches. Each switch needs its own license. The fabric operating

system views the trunk as a single, high bandwidth ISL resource (up to 64 Gbps when routing connections

between 8 Gbps capable switches). Connections are load-balanced across the individual links, which

comprise the logical trunk group.

Fabric Watch

Fabric WatchFabric Watch

Fabric Watch

Fabric Watch enables each switch to monitor the health of the SAN for potential faults-and automatically

alert network managers to problems before they become failures. Fabric Watch tracks a variety of SAN

fabric elements, events, and counters. Monitoring fabric-wide events, ports, SFPs, and environmental

parameters permits early fault detection and isolation as well as performance measurement. Each switch

in the SAN needs its own Fabric Watch license.

This enabling technology helps administrators monitor application data traffic from a SID (Source ID) to a

DID (Destination ID), so they can fine-tune and scale the fabric more efficiently. Plus, Advanced

Performance Monitoring includes the ability for early warning detection of hot spots within the fabric, a

powerful tool for maximizing SAN performance.

Manager Professional

HP StorageWorks Data Center Fabric Manager Professional is a server based management application

available at no-charge and comes with B-series SAN Switches and includes the following features:

Allows management of a single Fabric OS (FOS) fabric (up to a 1,000 B-Series switch ports) at a

time

Performs group switch management beyond the scope of Web Tools

Does not offer management of the DC SAN Backbone Director

It is targeted for SMB customers that use FOS based SAN fabrics and require a management solution for

smaller SANs based on a single fabric.

SMB customers that initially start off with Data Center Fabric Manager Professional and have a small

SAN environment may over time feel the need for an enterprise-class product (Data Center Fabric

Manager Enterprise) as their environments start to grow in size and complexity, and as they start to

uptake more enterprise-class functionality (such as Fibre Channel Routing, FCIP, etc.). A non-disruptive

upgrade path is available from Data Center Fabric Manager Professional to Data Center Fabric

Manager Enterprise.
