  • Page 39: Planning

    Section 3 Planning Consider the following when planning a fabric: Devices Device Access Performance Feature Licensing Multiple Chassis Fabrics Switch Services Fabric Security Fabric Management Devices When planning a fabric, consider the number of public devices and the anticipated demand. This will determine the number of ports that are needed and in turn the number of switches.
  • Page 40: Device Access

    Membership in a zone can be defined by switch domain ID and port number, port Fibre Channel address, or by device worldwide name (WWN). Devices can communicate only with devices within the same zone. The SANbox 5602 switch supports both hard and soft zones. A zone can be a member of more than one zone set.
  • Page 41: Soft Zones

    3 – Planning Device Access 3.2.1 Soft Zones Soft zoning divides the fabric for purposes of controlling device discovery. Devices in the same soft zone automatically discover and communicate freely with all other members of the same zone. The soft zone boundary is not secure; traffic across soft zones can occur if addressed correctly.
  • Page 42: Performance

    Performance Performance The SANbox 5602 switch supports class 2 and class 3 Fibre Channel service at transmission rates of 1-, 2-, 4-, or 10-Gbps with a maximum frame size of 2148 bytes. A 1-Gbps/2-Gbps port adapts its transmission speed to match that of the device to which it is connected prior to login when the connected device powers up.
  • Page 43: Bandwidth

    3 – Planning Performance You can configure recipient and donor ports using the SANsurfer Switch Manager application or the Set Config command. Refer to “Set Config Command” on page B-61 for more information. 3.3.2 Bandwidth Bandwidth is a measure of the volume of data that can be transmitted at a given transmission rate.
  • Page 44: Feature Licensing

    Feature Licensing Feature Licensing The SANbox 5602 switch can come from the factory as an 8-, 12-, 16-, or 20-port switch, enabling ports 0–7, 0–11, 0–15, or 0–19 respectively. Ports 16–19 are 10-Gbps ports. You can upgrade the SANbox 5602 switch to enable additional ports up to the 20-port maximum.
  • Page 45: Optimizing Device Performance

    Storage applications such as video distribution, medical record storage/retrieval or real-time data acquisition can have specific latency or bandwidth requirements. The SANbox 5602 switch provides the lowest latency of any product in its class. Refer to “Performance” on page 3-4 for information about latency.

  • Page 50: Mesh Topology

    3.5.4.2 Mesh Topology A mesh topology describes a fabric in which each chassis has at least one port directly connected to each other chassis in the fabric. Using 16-port SANbox 5602 switches the mesh fabric shown in Figure 3-5 has the following characteristics: Each link contributes up to 425 MB of bandwidth between switches, 850 MB in full duplex.
  • Page 51: Multistage Topology

    Multiple Chassis Fabrics 3.5.4.3 Multistage Topology A Multistage topology describes a fabric in which two or more edge switches connect to one or more core switches. Using 16-port SANbox 5602 switches, the Multistage fabric shown in Figure 3-6 has the following characteristics: Each link contributes up to 425 MB of bandwidth between chassis.
  • Page 52: Switch Services

    3 – Planning Switch Services Switch Services You can configure your switch to suit the demands of your environment by enabling or disabling a variety of switch services. Familiarize yourself with the following switch services and determine which ones you need: Telnet: Provides for the management of the switch over a Telnet connection.
  • Page 53: Fabric Security

    3 – Planning Fabric Security Network Time Protocol (NTP): Provides for the synchronizing of switch and workstation dates and times with an NTP server. This helps to prevent invalid SSL certificates and timestamp confusion in the event log. The default is disabled. Common Information Model (CIM): Provides for the management of the switch through third-party applications that use CIM.
  • Page 54: Connection Security

    3 – Planning Fabric Security 3.7.1 Connection Security Connection security provides an encrypted data path for switch management methods. The switch supports the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol for the command line interface and the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol for management applications such as SANsurfer Switch Manager and Common Information Module (CIM).
  • Page 55: Device Security

    3 – Planning Fabric Security 3.7.2 Device Security Device security provides for the authorization and authentication of devices that you attach to a switch. You can configure a switch with a group of devices against which the switch authorizes new attachments by devices, other switches, or devices issuing management server commands.
  • Page 56: Security Example: Switches And Hbas

    3 – Planning Fabric Security 3.7.2.1 Security Example: Switches and HBAs Consider the fabric shown in Figure 3-7. In this fabric, Switch_1, HBA_1, and Switch_2 support security while the JBOD and HBA_2 do not. The objective is to secure F_Ports and E_Ports in the fabric. To do this, configure security on the devices that support security: Switch_1, Switch_2, and HBA_1.
  • Page 57 3 – Planning Fabric Security You must specify HBAs by node worldwide name. Switches can be specified by port or node worldwide name. The type of switch worldwide name you use in the switch security database must be the same as that in the HBA security database. For example, if you specify a switch with a port worldwide name in the switch security database, you must also specify that switch in the HBA security database with the same port worldwide name.
  • Page 58 3 – Planning Fabric Security Configure security on Switch_2. Create a security set (Security_Set_2) on Switch_2. Create a port group (Group_Port_2) in Security_Set_2. HBA_2 is the only member because HBA_2 does not support authentication. Port Group on Switch_2: Group_Port_2 HBA_2 Node WWN: 10:00:00:c0:dd:07:e3:4c Authentication: None Binding: None...
  • Page 59: Security Example: Radius Server

    3 – Planning Fabric Security 3.7.2.2 Security Example: RADIUS Server Consider the fabric shown in Figure 3-8.

Authorization and authentication is passed from the switch to Radius_1 in the following cases: HBA_1 login to Switch_1 Switch_1 login to Switch_2 Switch_2 login to Switch_1...
  • Page 60 3 – Planning Fabric Security Configure the Radius_1 host as a RADIUS server on Switch_1 and Switch_2 to authenticate device logins. Specify the server IP address and the secret with which the switches will authenticate with the server. Configure the switches so that devices authenticate through the switches only if the RADIUS server is unavailable.
  • Page 61 3 – Planning Fabric Security You must specify HBAs by node worldwide name. Switches can be specified by port or node worldwide name. The type of switch worldwide name you use in the switch security database must be the same as that in the HBA security database. For example, if you specify a switch with a port worldwide name in the switch security database, you must also specify that switch in the HBA security database with the same port worldwide name.
  • Page 62 3 – Planning Fabric Security Configure security on Switch_2. Create a security set (Security_Set_2) on Switch_2. Create a port group (Group_Port_2) in Security_Set_2. HBA_2 is the only member because HBA_2 does not support authentication. Port Group on Switch_2: Group_Port_2 HBA_2 Node WWN: 10:00:00:c0:dd:07:e3:4c Authentication: None Binding: None...
  • Page 63: Security Example: Host Authentication

    3 – Planning Fabric Security 3.7.2.3 Security Example: Host Authentication Consider the fabric shown in Figure 3-9. In this fabric, only Switch_2 and HBA_2/APP_2 support security, where APP_2 is a host application. The objective is to secure the management server on Switch_2 from unauthorized access by an HBA or an associated host application.
  • Page 64 3 – Planning Fabric Security Create a security set (Security_Set_2) on Switch_2. Create a Management Server group (Group_1) in Security_Set_2 with Switch_2 and HBA_2 or APP_2 as its member. You must specify HBAs by node worldwide name. Switches can be specified by port or node worldwide name.
