HP SN6000C 8Gb Fibre Channel Switch (MDS9148)
Overview
The SN6000C 8Gb Fabric Switch (MDS 9148) is a high-performance, flexible, cost-effective platform providing high-density, line-rate 8Gbps ports for storage networking deployments in small, medium-sized, and large enterprise environments. The SN6000C switch
offers outstanding value by providing high-availability, security, and ease of use at a cost-effective price in a compact one-rack-unit
(1RU) form factor. With the flexibility to expand from 16 to 48 ports in 8-port increments, the SN6000C offers the densities required to
scale from an entry-level departmental switch to top-of-the-rack switch to edge connectivity in enterprise SANs. The SN6000C delivers
a non-blocking architecture, with all 48 1/2/4/8-Gbps ports operating at line rate concurrently.
The SN6000C supports the C-series Device Manager quick configuration wizard, which allows it to be deployed quickly and easily in
networks of any size. Powered by C-series MDS 9000 NX-OS Software, it includes advanced storage networking features and functions
and is compatible with C-series SN8000C (MDS 9500) and SN8500C (MDS 9700) Series Multilayer Directors and C-series MDS 9100 and
9200 Series Multilayer Fabric Switches, providing transparent, end-to-end service delivery in core-edge deployments.

The switch offers full non-blocking 8-Gbps Fibre Channel performance on 48 line-rate ports and an
aggregate bandwidth of 768 Gbps full duplex in a 1 Rack unit form factor.
The SN6000C switch comes in two preconfigured models of 16 or 32 ports. These models may be
upgraded onsite to enable additional ports by adding 8-port On-Demand Port Activation licenses for total
scalability of 48 ports.
The SN6000C switch comes standard with advanced features in a compact, extremely cost-effective
design that simplifies deployment and administration of small and medium-scale storage-area networks
(SANs) and as an edge switch in a larger enterprise.
N-Port ID Virtualization NPIV)
N-Port ID Virtualization (NPIV), a standard Fibre Channel protocol feature, individual virtual machines
assume a full identity on the SAN so that Fibre Channel services such as zoning, Quality of Service (QoS),
performance monitoring, and security can be provided to each virtual machine.
VSANs
:
:
VSAN, an industry standard for fabric virtualization capabilities, enables more efficient storage network
use by creating hardware-based isolated environments within a single physical SAN fabric or switch. Up to
32 VSANs are supported per switch. Each VSAN can be zoned as a typical SAN and maintains its own fabric
services and management domains for added scalability and resilience. VSANs allow the cost of SAN
infrastructure to be shared among more users, while helping ensure segregation of traffic and retaining
independent control of configuration on a VSAN-by-VSAN basis.
PortChannels
PortChannels allow users to aggregate up to 16 physical ISLs into a single logical bundle, providing
optimized bandwidth use across all links. The bundle can consist of any port from the switch, helping
ensure that the bundle remains active even in the event of a port failure.
N-Port Virtualization (NPV)
The number of Fibre Channel domain IDs in a Fibre Channel SAN environment is limited. N-Port
Virtualization (NPV) enables organization to scale there SANs without reaching these Fibre Channel domain
ID limits because and switch with NPV does not use a Fibre Channel domain ID. NPV aggregates locally
connected hosts into one or more uplinks to core switches in a pass through manner without using a Fibre
Channel domain ID.
FlexAttach
The C-series FlexAttach feature gives SN6000C switch customers the flexibility to add, move, or replace
servers easily without the need to reconfigure SAN switches or storage arrays. It provides this flexibility by

virtualizing the SAN identity of a server, which enables a server to retain its SAN identity even if the server
is moved or replaced.
HP SN6000C 8Gb Fibre Channel Switch (MDS9148)
High Availability
Quality of Service (QoS)
The Quality of Service (QoS) feature allows traffic to be classified into four distinct levels for service
differentiation. QoS can be applied to help ensure that Fibre Channel data traffic for latency-sensitive
applications receives higher priority over throughput-intensive applications such as data warehousing.
F-port trunking and channeling
The F-port trunking feature enables multiple VSANs to be transported on the uplink from a SN6000C
switch operating in NPV mode to the core switch. This feature will allow the consolidation of uplinks ports
necessary for extending VSAN connectivity to the NP device.
The F-port channeling feature enables up to 16 physical uplinks between a SN6000C switch operating in
NPV mode and the core switch to be bundled into a PortChannel.
IVR
(MDS 9000 NX-OS Software Release 5.1(0) or later:
VSANs and Inter-VSAN routing (IVR) enable deployment of large-scale multisite and heterogeneous SAN
topologies. Integrated VSANs in port-level hardware allow any port in a system or in a fabric to be
partitioned into any VSAN. Integrated IVR provides line-rate routing between any of the ports in a system
or in a fabric without the need for external routing appliances.
The SN6000C switch is designed for environments in which downtime is unacceptable. It offers:

Non-disruptive software upgrades
Process monitoring and stateful process restart
