As the LSAN_Zone3 has only offline members, the operation is failed with error code 4 (FAILED).

  • Page 45: Fabric Virtual Fabrics Subprofile

    Fabric profile Fabric virtual fabrics subprofile The fabric virtual fabrics subprofile models the partitioning of a physical fabric into one or more logical fabrics. The physical fabric consists of one or more switches that can be partitioned. The switch in the physical fabric that can be partitioned is called the partitioning system. The resulting virtual fabric will consist of one or more switches formed from the partitioning systems.

    Fabric profile Topology view The Topology View class was introduced in SMI-S 1.3 to increase the performance and reduce the number of traversals required to discover topology. The Network Advisor SMI Agent cannot provide a complete topology and its related information including instances of classes like Brocade_TopologyView, Brocade_SanActiveConnection if one of the switches involved goes unreachable or unmanageable.

  • Page 51 Fabric profile Prerequisites Only the HBAs that register a FDMI host name in the Name Server (NS) on the switch or fabric support the Brocade_Platform model. Currently, the EOS switches do not support FDMI. Therefore, HBAs connected to EOS switches do not support the Brocade_Platform model, including the instance classes and association classes.

  • Page 68: Cee Switch Support

    CEE switch support CEE switch support The Brocade CEE switch behaves as both an FC switch and an Ethernet switch. The FC capabilities are captured through the Switch profile. This is now enhanced to model the switch's Ethernet capabilities. The CEE switch is partitioned into an Ethernet Admin Domain and a Fibre Channel fabric, where the Ethernet Admin Domain does not have any contained domain association.
  • Page 69 CEE switch support • Configuration of the virtual FCoE port is supported. It is a normal switch port instance.

  • Page 75: Lags

    CEE switch support Limitations The value of LLDP-DCBX for port and switch is not persisted in Brocade Network Advisor. In order to retrieve the value of this property, a call needs to be executed. As a result, populating this property for port and switch during an enumerateInstances operation is costly and will lead to a degradation in discovery timings.
  • Page 76 CEE switch support • The capabilities of the service are represented by an instance of Brocade_LAGServiceCapabilities associated to the service through Brocade_LAGServiceElementCapabilities. The maximum number of lags that can be created on the switch and the methods supported by the service will be reported in this capabilities instance.

  • Page 78: Vlans

    CEE switch support VLANs Virtual Local Area Network (VLANs) provide the capability to overlay the physical network with multiple virtual networks. VLANs allow you to isolate the network traffic between virtual networks and reduce the size of administrative and broadcast domains. A VLAN contains end stations that have a common set of requirements that are independent of physical location.
  • Page 79 CEE switch support • Members can be removed from an existing Brocade_VLAN instance using the Brocade_VLANService.RemoveMembers() extrinsic method. Refer to BrocadeLAG.mof for details on the parameters. • An existing Brocade_VLAN instance may be deleted using the Brocade_VLANService.DeleteVLAN() extrinsic method. This method will delete the instance and its members.

  • Page 81: Cee Acls

    CEE switch support Registration There is no conformance to any profile, and thus no registration. Limitations The following are the limitations of VLAN profile: • The properties are provided through the capabilities on the endpoint. • There is no support for Generic VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) and so the Brocade_VLANEndPointCapabilities.Dot1QTagging is false.
  • Page 82 CEE switch support • Even though ACLs can be Layer 2-specific (MAC) or Layer 3-specific (IP), they can only be applied on the same type of interface. Because an interface can only be set to Layer 2 mode, Layer 2 ACLs and only ACLs with MAC source and destination addresses are supported. Data model There is no SNIA model for CEE ACLs.
  • Page 83 CEE switch support • An existing Brocade_CEEACLPolicy instance may be modified using the Brocade_CEEACLService.ModifyRole() extrinsic method. The input parameters Role and Privileges are required. Refer to MOF content for details on the parameters. The call replaces the existing Brocade_CEEACLRules instance for the Brocade_CEEACLPolicy specified in the input parameter Role with the instance of Brocade_CEEACLRules specified in the input parameter Privileges.

  • Page 84: Cee Maps

    CEE switch support Registration Because the DMTF DSP 1039 version 1.0.0 for Role-Based Authorization Profile to model these ACLs is being followed, conformance will be advertised to that profile. Figure 32 shows the profile registration diagram. FIGURE 32 CEE ACL profile registration CEE maps Data model There is no SNIA model for CEE maps.
  • Page 85 CEE switch support • If a CEE map has been applied to a port, this information can be discovered by traversing the Brocade_CEEMapOnEthernetPort to the Brocade_EthernetPort instance. • For every Brocade_EthernetSwitch instance, there will be an instance of Brocade_CEEMapService. This service will provide the ability to create, delete, modify, and assign CEE maps.

    FC routing FIGURE 36 Fabric switch partitioning profile registration FC routing A Fibre Channel Router (FCR) is a specific case of switch partitioning. The FC-FC routing service provides connectivity to devices in different fabrics without merging the fabrics. A switch running the FC-FC routing service is called a Fibre Channel Router.
  • Page 91 FC routing FIGURE 37 Fibre Channel Router data model • FCR devices of Brocade act as normal switches and routers. Therefore, the switch which is router capable and functioning in multi-domain mode, has both physical and logical representation in SMIS.

Consider two Routers R1 and R2 connected to each other by FCIP connection as VE-VEX.

    Brocade Access Gateway and NPIV Brocade Access Gateway and NPIV Access Gateway (AG) allows you to configure the enterprise fabric to handle additional N_Ports instead of domains by configuring F_Ports to connect to the fabric as N_Ports. This increases the number of device ports that can be connected to a single fabric.

    Names Names Various system objects such as a switch, switchport, device, deviceport, and so on are identified by a WWN. For convenience, these system objects may also be assigned a user-friendly name. The user-friendly name is generally the ElementName property in the instance. This feature provides the ability to easily discover the user-friendly names for all the system objects.
