•
REST APIs for configuration and monitoring.
•
Fiber Channel Routing (FCR) on FC ports, such as EX_Ports.
•
Fabric Vision advanced monitoring to provide the following functions:
–
Policy-based monitoring for Extension connectivity and WAN anomalies using multilayer metrics.
–
Flow monitoring that reports IOPS and the data rate of individual I/O flows of inter-DC replication and tape backup
operations.
–
Flow generator that generates FC frames for a defined flow with a default or a customized size and pattern. These frames
are sent across an Extension tunnel to help validate end-to-end network setup and configuration.
Hardware Features
The Brocade 7810 provides the following hardware features:
•
Twelve Fibre Channel optical ports that support the following transceivers:
–
32Gb/s short wavelength (SWL) and long wavelength (LWL) small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) optical transceivers
that can auto-negotiate to 32Gb/s, 16Gb/s, or 8Gb/s.
–
16Gb/s SWL and LWL SFP+ optical transceivers that can auto-negotiate to 16Gb/s, 8Gb/s, or 4Gb/s.
•
Six GbE optical ports that support the following transceivers for operation at 10Gb/s or 1Gb/s:
–
10GbE SFP+ short reach (SR)
–
10GbE SFP+ long reach (LR)
–
10GbE SFP+ ultra short reach (USR)
–
1GbE SFP+ SR
–
1GbE SFP+ LR
NOTE
Only a total of six GbE ports can operate at one time, either all six optical ports or a mixture of two RJ-45 copper
ports and four optical ports. For details, see
•
Two GbE ports that support 1GbE copper RJ-45 CAT5 transceivers.
•
One RJ-45 Ethernet management port with 10/100/1000-Mbps auto-negotiating capability.
•
One RS-232, 3-wire (Tx, Rx, and GND) universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART) serial port to BMC with RJ-45
connector.
•
One USB port to provide storage for firmware updates, output of the supportSave command, and storage for configuration
uploads and downloads.
•
Two hot-swappable, redundant, 250W AC/DC power supply assemblies, each integrated with three fans. These assemblies
provide nonport-side air intake (port-side exhaust) operation only.
•
Rack-mountable 1U chassis.
•
High performance T1022 control processor with two cores operating at 1.2 GHz for high performance, scalability, and
advanced Fabric Vision functionality.
License Options
The Brocade 7810 base model can be upgraded with an Upgrade license. This license increases the number of FC, VE, and GbE ports;
it increases GbE port speeds; and it adds support for FC and extension trunking, Fabric Vision, FC routing, and other Fabric OS features.
Refer to the Brocade Fabric OS Software Licensing Guide for full details.
