Extended Fabrics

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.

Improves performance by dynamically routing data traffic across multiple links and trunk groups.

The Power Pack Software Bundle includes*:

ISL Trunking

Advanced Performance Monitoring

Extended Fabrics

Fabric Watch

* Not supported in Access Gateway mode

For high performance enhanced Trunking, this optional license logically groups up to four E-ports to

provide a high bandwidth trunk between two Brocade or HP 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 16

Gb when routing connections between 4Gb capable switches). Each 24-port switch can have a total of

two 4-port Trunk groups for a total of up to 32 Gb throughput when routing connections between 4Gb

capable switches. Connections are load-balanced across the individual links, which comprise the logical

trunk group.

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

DID (Destination ID), so they can fine-tune and scale the fabric more efficiently. Plus, Advanced

Performance Monitoring includes the ability for early warning detection of hot spots within the fabric, a

powerful tool for maximizing SAN performance.

Extends the native Fibre-Channel traffic up to 166 km. Extended Fabrics increases the scalability all of

the scalability, reliability, and performance benefits of Fibre Channel Storage Area Networks (SANs)

beyond the native 10 km distance specified by the Fibre Channel standard.
