About This Guide

Distributed Fabrics User's Guide
Remote Switch and Extended Fabrics are licensed options and each product requires a
valid license key to function. Each license is supported for the HP Brocade 2400/2800 and

1Gb/2Gb Entry Switch 8B, FC 1Gb/2Gb Switch 8B, and FC 1Gb/2Gb Switch 16B using
Fabric OS version 3.0.1b or later.
Remote Switch, in conjunction with a compatible Fibre Channel to asynchronous transfer
mode (ATM) gateway, enables two HP Brocade 2400/2800, FC 6164, FC Entry Switch

infrastructure. Extended Fabrics allows the use of Fibre Channel technology to create a
