SAN Switch 2/8V has a two switch SAN scaling limit (standard)
Optional full SAN scaling license
An ASIC based capability in the 2Gb family of switches that enables new applications and features. The switch now has the
ability to "view" the first 64 bytes of the Fibre Channel frame. At this time, Frame Filtering enables advanced capabilities
such as Advanced Zoning and Advanced Performance Monitoring.
In the 2 Gb generation of switches, WWN Zoning and Access Control are enforced by hardware that provides the same
simple administration previously enforced only with software. Administrators can organize a physical fabric into logical
groups and prevent unauthorized access by devices outside the Zone.
Enables organizations to monitor and manage single Fibre Channel switches and 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.
Includes bundled license for:
