ISL Trunking
For high performance enhanced Trunking, this optional license logically groups up to four E-ports to provide a high
bandwidth trunk between two switches. Each 2 Gb switch needs its own license. The switch operating system views the trunk
as a single, high bandwidth resource (up to 8 Gb) when routing connections between switches. Connections are load-
balanced across the individual links, which comprise the logical trunk group. Each 8-port switch can have a total of two
separate 4-port Trunk groups.

Monitor
This enabling technology helps administrators monitor and watch specific fabric metrics from a SID (Source ID) to a DID
(Destination ID), so they can fine-tune and scale the fabric more efficiently. Plus, Advanced Performance Monitoring
includes the ability for early warning detection of hot spots within the fabric, a powerful tool for maintaining overall
balanced performance.
Fabric Watch
Fabric WatchFabric Watch
Fabric Watch
Fabric Watch enables each switch to monitor the SAN for potential faults-and automatically alert network managers to
problems before they become failures. Fabric Watch tracks a variety of SAN fabric elements, events, and counters.
Monitoring fabric-wide events, ports, SFPs, and environmental parameters permits early fault detection and isolation as well
as performance measurement. Each switch in the SAN needs its own Fabric Watch license.

Extends all of the scalability, reliability, and performance benefits of Fibre Channel Storage Area Networks (SANs) beyond
the native 10 km distance specified by the Fibre Channel standard. Required with future use of Very Long Distance SFPs
and/or wavelength division multiplexing (WDM or DWDM).

Remote switch fabric functions with the aid of a bridging device or network bridge. The network bridge supports both Fibre
Channel physical interfaces, as well as secondary non-Fibre Channel FCIP physical interface.

Fabric Manager (v4.1.1)
Fabric Manager is a highly scalable, Java-based application that manages multiple switches and multiple fabrics (up to
eight) in real time, helping SAN administrators with SAN configuration, monitoring, dynamic provisioning, and daily
management. SAN administrators gain rapid access to critical SAN information across multiple personality fabrics.
Secure Fabric OS
Secure Fabric OSSecure Fabric OS
Secure Fabric OS
Secure Fabric OS™ is a comprehensive security solution for SAN fabrics, providing policy-based security protection for more
predictable change management, assured configuration integrity and reduced risk of downtime. Secure Fabric OS protects
the network by using the strongest, enterprise-class security methods available, including digital certificates and digital
signatures, multiple levels of password protection, strong password encryption and Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)-based
authentication, and 128-bit encryption of the switch's private key used for digital signatures. With its flexible design, Secure
Fabric OS enables organizations to customize SAN security to meet specific policy requirements. In addition, Secure Fabric
OS works in conjunction with Advanced Zoning to further secure access to the SAN, simplify storage management, and
reduce provisioning time.
