• Provides additional information on a faulty port in Fabric Watch to aid in troubleshooting. • Enables use of passive FTP to download firmware. • Enables the user to specify a quality password policy that prevents the selection of passwords with consecutive, identical characters. • Uses multiple NTP servers with the tsclockserver command for redundancy. For example, if one NTP server fails (DR scenario), there is a backup that switches can access. • Logs a RASLog message when a 2.x switch joins the fabric. • High availability failover and user notification occur on the 4/256 SAN Director when there is a failed Ethernet chip (Oscillator chip). • Advanced Zoning with Web Tools licenses are no longer necessary, starting wit Fabric OS 6.1.x. These features are automatically enabled on all products running Fabric OS 6.1.x or later.
