One local port might connect to a fibre channel switch, which in turn connects to
devices in a storage area network (SAN). A second local port might connect to a GbE
switch, which in turn connects to the LAN.

LGRP Redundancy

To prevent loss of service due to equipment failure, two gateways can be linked as a pair,
serving as backup for each other, using the LightSand Gateway Redundancy Protocol (LGRP).
For a complete discussion of LGRP redundant pairs, please refer to
(Appendix B is currently under development.)

Gateway Network Management

The SANman graphical user interface, which is shipped with each S-2500B Gateway system,
provides tools for creating a network of gateways (called "nodes") and for configuring each
individual node. Refer to the SANman User Guide.

Standard Connections

The diagrams in this section show the S-2500B Gateway back panel and cable connections
used in various standard configurations.
