• Brocade ISL Trunking - Optimizes performance in multi-switch SAN fabrics. When two or more adjacent ISLs are used to connect two switches, the switches automatically group the ISLs into a single logical ISL, or "trunk." Up to eight ISLs can be combined into a single logical ISL with a total bandwidth of 32 Gbit/sec that can support any number of devices. • Brocade Fabric Manager - Enables administration, configuration, and maintenance of fabric switches and SANs with host-based software. • Brocade Advanced Performance Monitoring - Enables performance monitoring of networked storage resources. This license includes the TopTalkers feature. • FC-IP Services (For the FR4-18i and Brocade 7500) -- This license key includes the FC Fastwrite feature. • Brocade Fabric Watch-Monitors mission-critical switch operations. • FICON Management Server- Also known as "CUP" (Control Unit Port), enables host-control of switches in Mainframe environments. (Available only on FICON-qualified products) • ICLs, or Inter Chassis Links - Provides dedicated high-bandwidth links between two Brocade DCX Data Center Directors without consuming valuable front-end 8G ports. Each DCX must have the ICL license installed in order to enable the ICL connections. (Available on the DCX only). • Adaptive Networking with QoS- Ensures that high priority connections obtain the bandwidth necessary for optimum performance, even in congested environments. This feature is automatically enabled on all 4G-platforms when upgrading to Fabric OS 6.1.0. Optionally available on all new platforms. Ingress Rate Limiting and QoS available on new 8G-capable products. • FICON Acceleration- Provides performance improvements for FICON Extension on the Brocade 7500 and FR4-18i. • Integrated Routing - Available for the Brocade DCX, 5300, and 5100. Per-chassis license allows full use of EX_ports on any port in chassis • Temporary Licenses - With Fabric OS 6.1.0, temporary licenses are supported for the following features: • Fabric (E_ports) • Extended Fabric • Trunking • FCIP • Performance Monitoring The following licensed software is bundled with Brocade hardware. No additional purchase is necessary: • Brocade Web Tools-Administration, configuration, and maintenance of fabric switches and SANs. • Brocade Zoning-Division of a fabric into virtual private SANs. • IPSec - IP Security (for the Brocade 7500 and FR4-18i blade in the Brocade 48000 and DCX backbone). • NPIV - N-port ID Virtualization, allowing up to 256 virtual addresses per physical port. This feature is supported only on the Brocade 200E and Brocade 300 in Access Gateway mode. Fabric OS Command Reference xxiii 53-1000599-02
