Product Specification
The IBM System Storage SAN24B-4 Switch is an 8GB Fibre Channel (FC) switch designed to provide high-speed, reliable connectivity for storage area networks (SANs). It is a scalable, high-performance switch that is ideal for medium to large-sized organizations looking for a cost-effective solution to manage their SAN environments.
Features of IBM SAN24B-4 Switch
The IBM System Storage SAN24B-4 Switch is a 24-port FC switch that provides 8GB/s bandwidth per port. It supports various features such as fabric-based Quality of Service (QoS), Inter-Switch Link (ISL) trunking, and non-disruptive firmware upgrades. The switch also supports hot-swappable components, which allows organizations to upgrade or replace components without disrupting the network.
The SAN24B-4 switch is also designed to support virtualization, which enables organizations to create multiple virtual SANs on a single physical infrastructure. This allows for the consolidation of resources, reduces management overhead, and simplifies network complexity.
Security Features
The SAN24B-4 switch also includes various security features to ensure data privacy and prevent unauthorized access. These features include Secure Fabric OS, which provides a secure shell (SSH) protocol for remote management and secure access control lists (ACLs) for controlling network access. The switch also supports role-based access control (RBAC), which enables organizations to define different access levels for different users based on their roles.
Ease of Management
The IBM System Storage SAN24B-4 Switch is designed to be easy to manage, which reduces the total cost of ownership (TCO) for organizations. The switch includes a graphical user interface (GUI) and a command-line interface (CLI) for easy configuration and management. It also supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), which allows for centralized monitoring and management of the switch.
Compatibility
The SAN24B-4 switch is also designed to be compatible with other IBM System Storage products. It supports IBM's Fabric Manager software, which provides centralized management and monitoring of the SAN environment. It also supports IBM's SAN Volume Controller (SVC), which provides storage virtualization and management capabilities.
Finally, the IBM System Storage SAN24B-4 Switch is a reliable, high-performance, and cost-effective solution for managing storage area networks. Its features such as QoS, ISL trunking, virtualization, and security make it an ideal choice for medium to large-sized organizations. Its ease of management and compatibility with other IBM System Storage products also make it a popular choice among IT professionals.
