Licensed Features
The iSR6200 router has features that are available by a license key.
Data Migration
The iSR6200 router provides data migration as an optional, licensed feature.
The iSR6200-based data migration feature is block-based and independent of a
SAN, server, storage protocol (Fibre Channel and iSCSI), and storage vendor.
Because application downtime during data migration is always critical, iSR6200
data migration supports both online (local and remote) and offline data migration
across Fibre Channel and iSCSI storage arrays. Even offline data migration using
the iSR6200 is designed to minimize application downtime by allowing you to
configure all migration related tasks while the application remains online, and to
migrate the data at a very high speed while the application is offline. This feature
is designed such that any person with knowledge of SAN or SAN storage
administration can migrate data.
Remote SAN Island Connectivity
The iSR6200 router supports inter-connecting remote SAN islands, as shown in
Figure 1-1.
