HP StorageWorks Data Center Fabric Manager Enterprise is a server based enterprise-class product that
supports FOS products as well as FOS and M-EOS products together. It provides complete DC SAN
Backbone Director management including enterprise-class features/environments such as FICON, Fibre
Channel Routing, FCIP, Adaptive Networking, etc. It also delivers unprecedented scalability with support
for up to 24 SAN fabrics and 9,000 B-series switch ports.
HP will provide a free license upgrade to Data Center Fabric Manager Enterprise for existing HAFM/FM
customers that have an active maintenance and support contract at the time Data Center Fabric Manager
Enterprise is available. Data Center Fabric Manager does require at least one FOS based B-series SAN
switch.
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 4Gb switch needs its own license. The
switch operating system views the trunk as a single, high bandwidth resource (up to 32Gb) when routing
connections between 4G switches. Connections are load-balanced across the individual links, which
comprise the logical trunk group.
Secure Fabric OS
Secure Fabric OS™ is available only on the B-Series platform and is the only solution that provides
protection for both management access and switch-to-switch authentication. This comprehensive security
solution for SAN fabrics provides 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.
