SAN Switch 2/32 Version 4.2.x Installation Guide
SAN Switch 2/32 Features
This section provides feature-specific information.
Firmware
The SAN Switch 2/32 operates using FOS firmware version 4.2.x. The firmware
supports:
■
An optional Security feature, which provides security mechanisms at all
vulnerable points in a SAN fabric, from hosts to storage at the port, switch,
and fabric levels.
■
High-speed data traffic using Interswitch Link (ISL) trunking technology
■
Automatic rerouting through the Fabric Shortest Path First (FSPF) algorithm
■
Application Programming Interface (API), which is a protocol that allows
applications to interface with switch services
■
Per port statistics, which help technicians diagnose and isolate problem ports
without disrupting switch operations
■
Error detection and fault isolation
■
Industry standard Management Information Base (MIB) support
■
Automatic self-discovery
■
Advanced Web Tools, which is an integrated Graphical User Interface (GUI),
to manage the SAN from a browser
Hardware
The SAN Switch 2/32 consists of the following components:
■
An air-cooled 1.5-Unit chassis that can be set up as a stand-alone unit or
mounted in a standard Electronic Industries Association (EIA) 19-inch rack
■
32 Fibre Channel ports
■
One RS-232 Serial port, designed to connect to a DTE port
■
One 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet port with an RJ-45 connector
■
Two redundant power supplies, with AC switches and built-in fans
■
Three redundant fan assemblies, hot-swappable if replaced one at a time
■
A field-replaceable motherboard assembly enclosed in a grounded EMI cage
