SCSI address 7 has the highest priority followed by 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, with 0 being the lowest priority. See simple network management protocol. See simple network management protocol community. See simple network management protocol community name. See simple network management protocol management station. See simple network management protocol version 1. See simple network management protocol version 2. See static random access memory. See system services processor. The state of the switch or director. Possible values include online, offline, testing, and faulty. See offline state; online state. SRAM. SRAM is microprocessor-cache random access memory. It is built internal to the microprocessor or on external chips. SRAM is fast, but relatively expensive (D). Contrast with dynamic random access memory. SAN. A high-performance data communications environment that interconnects computing and storage resources so that the resources can be effectively shared and consolidated. See also local area network; wide area network. In FICON management style, a method for configuring addresses. A portion of a network that shares a common address component. On transmission control protocol/Internet protocol (TCP/IP) networks, subnets are defined as all devices whose IP addresses have the same prefix. Dividing a network into subnets is useful for both security and performance reasons. IP networks are divided using a subnet mask. g-38 EFCM Basic User Manual
