Remote Switch Overview And Limitations - HP StorageWorks 2/32 - SAN Switch Release Note

Zoning Licensing
HP provides Zoning as a standard feature on its SAN and Core Fibre Channel switches. This
means that the Zoning license is factory installed on each of these switches. You should ignore
references in the product documentation to installing the Zoning license or to Zoning being an
optionally purchased product.

Remote Switch Overview and Limitations

The Remote Switch fabric functions with the aid of a "bridging device" or network-bridge.
The network-bridge supports both a Fibre Channel physical interface, as well as a secondary
non-Fibre Channel FCIP physical interface.
There are currently the following Remote Switch support limitations:
• The network-bridge supports both a Fibre Channel physical interface, as well as a
secondary non-Fibre Channel IP physical interface.
• Remote Switch is currently supported with the CNT UltraNet Edge Model 1001 (firmware
version 1.4) gateway device.
IMPORTANT: Remote Switch is supported when used with HP StorageWorks Data Replication
Manager (DRM) only.
