IBM Supervisor-1E Module

The Supervisor-1E Module is designed specifically for the SAN768C-6. This
supervisor module delivers the latest advanced switching technology and resources
to support the 18 slot chassis.
This supervisor module supports the following features:
v Nondisruptive software upgrades
v Stateful process restart and failover
v Fully redundant operation
v Support for up to 768 2/4/8 Gbps, 4/8/16 Gbps, or 8/16/32 Gbps full line-rate
v Support for up to 48 Tbps of Fibre Channel system bandwidth
v Multipathing based on Fabric Shortest Path First (FSPF)
v Ability to dynamically reroute traffic in the event of a switch failure
v Network management through the command-line interface (CLI) and through
v Extensive security features including RADIUS and TACACS+, Fibre Channel
v Support for virtual SAN (VSAN) technology and inter-VSAN routing (IVR)
v Network services such as access control lists (ACLs) and quality of service (QoS)
v Smart zoning
v Power-on self-test (POST) and diagnostics
v Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN) and Remote Switched Port Analyzer (RSPAN)
