The Brocade 8Gb SAN Switch for HP BladeSystem c-Class delivers an easy to manage embedded Fibre Channel switch with 8 Gbps
performance. The Brocade 8Gb SAN Switch hot-plugs into the back of the HP BladeSystem c-Class Enclosure. The integrated design
frees up rack space, enables shared power and cooling, and reduces cabling and small form-factor pluggables. Enhanced trunking
support with external switches provides higher bandwidth to enable demanding applications such as server virtualization. New
features in the Power Pack+ option enable you to manage data flow to maintain optimized application performance. The 12 or 24
auto-sensing ports support lower bandwidth components for investment protection and an upgrade license enables you to 'pay as
you grow'. The Brocade 8Gb SAN Switch saves space and cost, significantly simplifies the SAN environment, enables easier
deployment and management, and delivers the performance required for emerging higher throughput applications.

Brocade Access Gateway, a feature enabled in Fabric OS v5.2.1b and later, enables Brocade
embedded SAN switches to interoperate with other SAN fabrics running supported firmware. While in
Brocade Access Gateway mode, the device must also be connected to an NPIV-enabled edge switch or
director. Supported edge environments are listed in the Brocade Fabric OS® release notes.

Gateway eliminates switch/domain considerations.
* Brocade Access Gateway mode does not support many switch-related features, including most features

Advanced Zoning
Zoning (Port and Worldwide Name), as well as Access Control, are enforced by hardware within the
ASIC that provides the same simple administration previously enforced only with software. 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.
WebTools

Brocade Fabric OS
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.
EGM
EGMEGM
EGM
Enhanced Group Management (EGM) is a FOS license that is included with all B-Series switches and
enables multi-switch operations. It helps automate operations across multiple switches to save time and
streamline repetitive operations, which are typically prone to error. EGM drives consistency across
fabrics, while minimizing the risk associated with potential downtime due to configuration mismatches.
EGM provides streamlined troubleshooting for more effective fabric monitoring and diagnosis.
Both Data Center Fabric Manager Professional and Enterprise enable EGM functionality. Customers
have EGM functionality enabled within the hardware product and need only to make the decision around
which management application is right for them - Data Center Fabric Manager Professional or
Enterprise.

Secure Fabric OS features have been fully integrated into the base Fabric OS since v5.3.0. These
comprehensive security features for SAN fabrics provide policy-based security protection for more
predictable change management, assured configuration integrity and reduced risk of downtime. Security
methods supported include 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. These features enable
organizations to customize SAN security to meet specific policy requirements and work in conjunction
with Advanced Zoning to further secure access to the SAN, simplify storage management, and reduce
provisioning time.

This suite of tools optimizes fabric behavior and ensures ample bandwidth for mission-critical
applications. The tools currently include Quality of Service (QoS), Ingress Rate Limiting, Traffic Isolation,
and Top Talkers. 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. And Top Talkers measures the top bandwidth-consuming traffic in real time for
a specific physical or virtual device, or end to end across the fabric.
ISL Trunking
ISL TrunkingISL Trunking
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
Brocade or HP StorageWorks B-Series switches. Each switch needs its own license. The fabric operating
system views the trunk as a single, high bandwidth ISL resource (up to 64 Gbps when routing connections
between 8 Gbps capable switches). Connections are load-balanced across the individual links, which
comprise the logical trunk group.
Fabric Watch
Fabric WatchFabric Watch
Fabric Watch
Fabric Watch enables each switch to monitor the health of 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.

This enabling technology helps administrators monitor application data traffic from a SID (Source ID) to a

Performance Monitoring includes the ability for early warning detection of hot spots within the fabric, a
powerful tool for maximizing SAN performance.

Manager Professional
HP StorageWorks Data Center Fabric Manager Professional is a server based management application
available at no-charge and comes with B-series SAN Switches and includes the following features:
Allows management of a single Fabric OS (FOS) fabric (up to a 1,000 B-Series switch ports) at a
time
Performs group switch management beyond the scope of Web Tools
Does not offer management of the DC SAN Backbone Director
It is targeted for SMB customers that use FOS based SAN fabrics and require a management solution for
smaller SANs based on a single fabric.
SMB customers that initially start off with Data Center Fabric Manager Professional and have a small
SAN environment may over time feel the need for an enterprise-class product (Data Center Fabric
Manager Enterprise) as their environments start to grow in size and complexity, and as they start to
uptake more enterprise-class functionality (such as Fibre Channel Routing, FCIP, etc.). A non-disruptive
upgrade path is available from Data Center Fabric Manager Professional to Data Center Fabric
Manager Enterprise.
