Licensing overview 16 TABLE 77 License Available Brocade licenses (Continued) Description Brocade Fabric Watch Monitors mission-critical switch operations. Fabric Watch includes Port Fencing capabilities. Brocade ISL Trunking Provides the ability to aggregate multiple physical links into one logical link for enhanced network performance and fault tolerance. Also includes Access Gateway ISL Trunking on those products that support Access Gateway deployment. Brocade Ports on Demand Allows you to instantly scale the fabric by provisioning additional ports using license key upgrades. Applies to the Brocade 300, 4100, 4900, 5000, 5100, 5300, and VA-40FC switches. DataFort Compatibility License Provides the Brocade Encryption Switch, the Brocade DCX and DCX-4S with FS8-18 blade to read and decrypt the NetApp DataFort-encrypted Disk LUNs and Tapes. DataFort Compatible License is also required on the Brocade Encryption Switch, the Brocade DCX and DCX-4S with FS8-18 blade to write and encrypt the Disk LUNs and Tapes in NetApp DataFort Compatible Format (metadata, encryption, algorithm, and compression algorithm) so that DataFort can read and decrypt these tapes and disk LUNs. Availability of this license is limited; contact your vendor for details. Encryption Performance Upgrade License Provides additional encryption bandwidth on encryption platforms. For the Brocade Encryption Switch, two Encryption Performance Upgrade licenses can be installed to enable the full available bandwidth. On a Brocade DCX and DCX-4S, a single Performance License can be installed to enable full bandwidth on all FS8-18 blades installed in the chassis. Enhanced Group Management Enables full management of the 8 Gbps platforms in a datacenter fabric with deeper element management functionality and greater management task aggregation throughout the environment. FCoE License Enables Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) functionality on the Brocade 8000 switch. This license is included by default for the Brocade 8000 switch. FICON Management Server Enables host-control of switches in mainframe environments. (Also known as "CUP", Control Unit Port) High Performance Extension over FCIP/FC Includes the FC-Fastwrite feature and IPsec capabilities. Applies to (formerly known as "FC-IP Services") FR4-18i blade and Brocade 7500. ICL 16-link License, or Inter Chassis Links Provides dedicated high-bandwidth links between two Brocade DCX chassis, without consuming valuable front-end 8 Gbps ports. Each chassis must have the ICL license installed in order to enable the full 16-link ICL connections. (Available on the DCX only.) ICL 8-Link License Activates all eight links on ICL ports on a Brocade DCX-4S chassis or half of the ICL bandwidth for each ICL port on the Brocade DCX platform by enabling only eight links out of the sixteen links available. This allows you to purchase half the bandwidth of DCX ICL ports initially and upgrade with an additional 8-link license to utilize the full ICL bandwidth at a later time. This license is also useful for environments that wish to create ICL connections between a DCX and a DCX-4S, the latter of which cannot support more than 8 links on an ICL port. Available on the Brocade DCX and DCX-4S platforms only (This license replaces the original ICL license for the DCX-4S). Fabric OS Administrator's Guide 367 53-1001763-01
