Private LAN
In a LAN free, private LAN topology, a separate LAN is implemented solely for the purposes of backup data traffic. In
this topology, backup data flows from the EMC CLARiiON storage systems into the client servers, across the private
LAN to the backup server, and then from the backup server out to the tape library. Consult the backup software
supplier for information on compatible backup components such as the server and its operating system, HBAs, and
tape libraries.
