HP StorageWorks H-series Fibre Channel

Switches with Transparent Router

Transparent Router (TR) functionality is a revolutionary

capability standard on all HP H-series switches—

HP StorageWorks SN6000 Stackable 8Gb Fibre Channel

Switches and StorageWorks 8/20q Fibre Channel Switches.

TR provides seamless and non-disruptive connectivity and

interoperability between HP H-series, HP B-series, and

HP C-series Fibre Channel switches, enabling server and

storage resource sharing between fabrics.

TR capability provides the optimal operational efficiency:

• Uses industry-standard NPIV to connect to HP H-series,

HP B-series, and HP C-series fabrics; the same as

HP Virtual Connect

• TR implemented on a per-port basis for true fabric

interoperability

− Standard feature (no additional charge!)

− Simply choose which ports to use as N-ports to connect

to an installed fabric

• Provides server and storage transparency between SAN

fabrics

− Continue using remaining device ports for connections

to storage, servers, or other switches in your SAN

• Maximum investment protection—best of both worlds

− Simplicity—for the SAN novice in small departments

or the expert in global data centers

− Seamlessly connect to existing HP B-series and

HP C-series fabrics for data sharing

− Flexibility to use assets in the field and at corporate

• Low-cost, high-performance switch

− Reap the benefits of a next-generation full-fabric price/

performance switch that seamlessly interoperates with

HP B-series and HP C-series switches

• Use the same familiar tools to manage existing fabrics

− Use familiar B-series tools to manage B-series fabrics

and C-series tools to manage C-series fabrics

− No disruption to B-series tools or C-series tools or their

respective advanced features

− Investment in B-series and C-series fabrics is preserved

Solution overview

Transparent Router technology eliminates the support and

management challenges of switch interoperability and

merged SAN fabrics of the past, to allow sharing of HP

server and storage resources over multiple paths between

heterogeneous SANs. TR security and containment allow

the SANs to be connected without impacting existing

infrastructure.

Ideal TR use cases include
• SAN for backup
• SAN for departmental build-out
• Growth and interconnect path to the latest technology

TR technology simplifies management of departmental and

large data-center SANs; protects and preserves existing

B-series and C-series security and stability; and provides

direct, high-performance access to needed server and

storage resources on disparate SANs.

Other key benefits

• No E-port complexity—With revolutionary TR technology,

these new HP H-series switches provide the performance

and port consolidation of a new switch, without actually

exposing them to the core SAN—only the customer-

specified devices are visible.

• High level of security and access control—Only customer-

specified devices are visible (and shareable) between

fabrics.

• Low cost—Get all the benefits of SAN expansion (more

capacity, redundancy, etc.) without impact or risk to

existing B-series and C-series fabrics.
