Interoperability Brocade Access Gateway mode enables the Brocade 32Gb Fibre Channel SAN Switch Module for HPE Synergy to interoperate with other SAN fabrics running supported firmware. While in Access Gateway mode, the device must be connected to an NPIV-enabled edge switch or director. Supported edge environments are listed in the SAN Design Guide https://support.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=c00403562 | |
|
| |
|
Software Components, Standard | |
|
Access Gateway* Brocade Access Gateway Mode enables seamless connectivity for the Brocade 32Gb Fibre Channel SAN Switch Module for HPE Synergy to other supported SAN fabrics, enhances scalability and simplifies manageability. Utilizing N_Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) standards, Brocade Access Gateway eliminates switch/domain considerations.
Notes: *Brocade Access Gateway mode does not support switch-related features, including some features in the Power Pack+ bundle (e.g. Extended Fabric). Please refer to the Access Gateway Administrator's Guide for details.
| |
|
Frame Filtering A special B-Series ASIC-based capability that enables new applications and features. The switch has the ability to "view" the first 64-bytes of the Fibre Channel frame. At this time, Frame Filtering enables advanced capabilities such as Advanced Zoning,Frame level analytics and statistics. | |
|
Advanced Zoning Zoning (Port and Worldwide Name), as well as Access Control, are enforced by hardware within the ASIC. Hardware enforcement enables the highest level of zoning enforcement without any impact to performance. Administrators can organize a physical fabric into logical groups and prevent unauthorized access by devices outside the Zone.
| |
|
Web Tools Enables organizations to monitor and manage single Fibre Channel switches and monitor small SAN fabrics. Tasks can be performed through a Java-capable Web browser from a standard laptop, desktop PC or workstation from any location within the enterprise.
| |
|
Dynamic Path Selection Improves performance by dynamically routing data traffic across multiple links and trunk groups.
| |
|
Adaptive Networking Services Adaptive Networking services optimize fabric behavior and ensure ample bandwidth for mission-critical applications. The tools currently include Quality of Service (QoS), Ingress Rate Limiting and Traffic Isolation. By assigning zones a high, medium, or low priority, QoS allocates bandwidth in the event of congestion to expedite high-priority traffic and keep all traffic flowing. Ingress Rate Limiting restricts data flow from less-critical hosts at preset bandwidths. Traffic Isolation assigns high-bandwidth data flows to specific ISLs.
Notes: Adaptive Networking Services are included by default in the switch firmware and do not require a separate license. | |

SANnav Management Portal and SANnav Global View not only transform SAN telemetry data into useful insights, such as health and performance scores, but also enable administrators to quickly associate real-time data with historical metrics and logs for in-depth analysis. This can help with spotting trends, establishing baselines, and identifying any behavioral changes over time.
HPE SANnav Management Software is available as a term-license for 1-year, 3-years and 5-years period as both - physical and electronic License-to-Use (LTU). It supports 8Gb, 16Gb and 32Gb FC Switches and Directors.
|
|
|
ISL Trunking For high performance and seamless failover, this optional license logically groups up to eight E_ports (switch mode) or F_ports (Access Gateway mode) to provide a high bandwidth trunk between two HPE B-Series or Brocade switches. Each switch needs its own license. The fabric operating system views the trunk as a single, high bandwidth ISL resource (up to 256 Gbps when routing connections between 32 Gb/s capable switches). Connections are load-balanced across the individual links, which comprise the logical trunk group. |
