Section 2 General Description This section describes the features and capabilities of the SANbox2-64 Fibre Channel switch. The following topics are described: Chassis hardware Chassis controls and LEDs Fibre channel ports Ethernet port Serial port Power supply modules Fans Switch management Fabrics are managed with the SANbox Manager switch management application (version 3.00) and the Command Line Interface (CLI).
D 2 – General Description Chassis Hardware 2.1 Chassis Hardware The SANbox2-64 switch is set of up to eight 8-port I/O blades. Each I/O blade is interconnected with all other I/O blades through the backplane which is supported by four cross-connect ASICs. A CPU module provides configuration, monitoring, data path management, and control functions. The base SANbox2-64 switch is configured as a 16-port switch. The 16-port switch is equipped with 2 I/O blades, 2 power supply modules, and a CPU module.
D 2 – General Description Chassis Hardware numbered 0–63 from top to bottom according to slot number as shown in Figure 2-2. For example, the ports 0–7 are always associated with the I/O blade in slot #1; ports 8–15 are always associated with slot #2, and so on. For example, if there were no I/O blade in slot #1, I/O blade #2 would retain the 8–15 port numbering.
D 2 – General Description Chassis Controls and LEDs 2.2 Chassis Controls and LEDs The Maintenance button on the CPU module, shown in Figure 2-3, is the only chassis control and is used to reset a switch or to recover a disabled switch. Power is applied to the switch logic circuitry when one or both power supply modules are connected to a 110 or 230 VAC power source. The chassis LEDs are located on the CPU module and provide information about the switch’s operational status.
D 2 – General Description Chassis Controls and LEDs 2.2.1.1 Resetting a Switch To reset the switch, use a pointed tool to press and release (less than 2 seconds) the Maintenance button. The switch will respond as follows: 1. All of the chassis LEDs will illuminate and then extinguish leaving only the Input Power LED illuminated. 2. After approximately 1 minute, the power-on self test begins illuminating all chassis LEDs. 3.
D 2 – General Description Chassis Controls and LEDs 2.2.2 Chassis LEDs The chassis LEDs shown in Figure 2-4 provide status information about switch operation. Refer to ”Port Status LED” on page 2-8 for information about the Port Status LED. Refer to ”Power Supply Modules” on page 2-12 for information about power supply LEDs. Input Power LED (Green) Heartbeat LED (Amber) Fan Fail LED (Amber) Over Temperature LED (Amber) Figure 2-4. Chassis LEDs 2.2.2.
D 2 – General Description Fibre Channel Ports 2.2.2.3 Heartbeat LED (Amber) The Heartbeat LED indicates the status of the internal switch processor and the results of the Power On Self Test (POST). Following a normal power-up, the Heartbeat LED blinks about once per second to indicate that the switch passed the POST and that the internal switch processor is running. In maintenance mode, the Heartbeat LED illuminates continuously.
D 2 – General Description Fibre Channel Ports 2.3.1 Port Status LED The Port Status LED is a two-color LED that indicates both logged-in (or loop initialization) status and when the port is transmitting or receiving frames. Following a successful port login or loop initialization, the Port Status LED illuminates green. When the port begins transmitting or receiving frames, the Port Status LED illuminates amber for 50 milliseconds as each frame passes.
D 2 – General Description Ethernet Port 2.3.3 Port Modes SANbox2-64 switches support the following port modes: Generic ports (GL_Port and G_Port) Fabric ports (FL_Port and F_Port) Expansion ports (E_Port) Switches come from the factory with all ports configured as GL_Ports. GL_Ports self-configure in the following ways: FL_Port when connected to a loop of public devices F_Port when connected to a single public device.
D 2 – General Description Serial Port The Ethernet port has two LEDs: the Link Status LED (green) and the Activity LED (amber). The Link Status LED illuminates continuously when an Ethernet connection has been established. The Activity LED illuminates when data is being transmitted or received over the Ethernet connection. RJ-45 Ethernet Port Link Status LED (Green) Activity LED (Amber) Figure 2-7. Ethernet Port 2.
D 2 – General Description Serial Port Serial Port 6 1 9 5 Figure 2-8. Serial Port and Pin Identification The serial port connector requires a null-modem F/F DB9 cable. The pins on the switch RS-232 connector are shown in Figure 2-8 and identified in Table 2-1. Refer to ”Connect the Management Workstation to the Switch” on page 4-9 for information about connecting the management workstation through the serial port. Table 2-1.
D 2 – General Description Power Supply Modules 2.6 Power Supply Modules The power supply modules convert standard 110 or 230 VAC to DC voltages for the various switch circuits. Each power supply module has an AC power receptacle and two status LEDs as shown in Figure 2-9. Each power supply module is capable of providing all of the switch’s power needs. During normal operation, each power supply provides half of the demand.
D 2 – General Description Fans 2.7 Fans The switch is equipped with three fans as shown in Figure 2-10. If one of the fans should fail, the other two fans are capable of providing the necessary cooling until the failed fan can be replaced. The fans are hot pluggable and interchangeable. Refer to ”Fans” on page 6-18 for information about removing and replacing the fans. Air flow is back-to-front. Fans Figure 2-10.
2 – General Description Switch Management D 2.8 Switch Management SANbox Manager is a workstation-based Java® application that provides a graphical user interface for fabric management. This application runs on a Windows®, Solaris™, or Linux® workstation. The management workstation connects to the fabric directly through one switch’s Ethernet port and provides in-band management for all other switches in the fabric.
Section 3 Planning Consider the following when planning a fabric: Devices Multiple chassis fabrics Performance Device access Fabric security Fabric management 3.1 Devices When planning a fabric, consider the number of devices and the anticipated demand. This will determine the number of ports that are needed and in turn the number of switches. Consider how many and what types of switches are needed.
D 3 – Planning Devices When planning a fabric, consider how to create redundant paths and minimize latency. Initiators and targets experience the least amount of latency when connected to the same I/O blade. For example, connecting initiator and target “A” ports together on one I/O blade and initiator and target “B” ports on another I/O blade, as shown in Figure 3-1, creates redundant paths and minimizes latency. Initiators A B A B Targets Figure 3-1.
D 3 – Planning Devices For a multiple switch fabrics in which initiators on one switch communicate with targets on another, the same principles apply as shown in Figure 3-2. The “A” port initiators and E_Ports are grouped together on one I/O blade with connections to the corresponding “A” port targets and E_Ports on the same I/O blade on the second switch. “B” port initiators, targets, and links are connected in a similar way. Initiators A A B B Targets Figure 3-2.
D 3 – Planning Multiple Chassis Fabrics 3.2 Multiple Chassis Fabrics By connecting switches together you can expand the number of available ports for devices. Each switch in the fabric is identified by a unique domain ID, and the fabric will automatically resolve domain ID conflicts. Because the ports are self-configuring, you can connect SANbox2-64 and other FC-SW-2 compliant switches together in a wide variety of topologies. 3.2.
D 3 – Planning Multiple Chassis Fabrics 3.2.2 Common Topologies The SANbox2-64 switch supports three commonly used fabric topologies: Cascade Mesh Multistage® A cascade topology describes a fabric in which the switches are connected in a linear fashion. If you connect the last switch back to the first switch, you create a cascade-with-a-loop topology. The loop reduces latency because any switch can route traffic in the shortest direction to any switch in the loop.
D 3 – Planning Performance 3.3 Performance The SANbox2-64 switch supports class 2 and class 3 Fibre Channel service at transmission rates of 1 Gbps or 2 Gbps with a maximum frame size of 2148 bytes. A port can transmit or receive at 1 Gbps or 2 Gbps depending on the device to which it is connected. The port discovers the transmission speed prior to login when the connected device powers up. Related performance characteristics include the following: Distance Bandwidth Latency 3.3.
D 3 – Planning Performance 3.3.2 Bandwidth Bandwidth is a measure of the volume of data that can be transmitted at a given transmission rate. A port can transmit or receive at 1 Gbps or 2 Gbps depending on the device to which it is connected. The switch supports all transmission rate combinations as shown in Table 3-1. Table 3-1.
D 3 – Planning Device Access 3.4 Device Access Consider device access needs within the fabric. Access is controlled by the use of zones and zone sets. Some zoning strategies include the following: Separate devices that use different operating systems. Separate devices that have no need to communicate with other devices in the fabric or have classified data. Separate devices into department, administrative, or other functional group.
D 3 – Planning Device Access 3.4.1 Soft Zones Soft zoning divides the fabric for purposes of controlling discovery. Members of the same soft zone automatically discover and communicate freely with all other members of the same zone. The soft zone boundary is not secure; traffic across soft zones can occur if addressed correctly. The following rules apply to soft zones: Soft zones that include members from multiple switches need not include the ports of the inter-switch links.
D 3 – Planning Device Access 3.4.3 Virtual Private Fabric Hard Zones Virtual Private Fabric (VPF) zoning divides the fabric for purposes of controlling discovery and both inbound and outbound traffic. This type of zoning is useful for providing security and reserving paths between devices to guarantee bandwidth. VPF zoning is a type of hard zoning that is hardware enforced. Members can only transmit to and receive from members of the same VPF zone.
D 3 – Planning Fabric Security 3.5 Fabric Security An effective security profile begins with a security policy that states the requirements. A threat analysis is needed to define the plan of action followed by an implementation that meets the security policy requirements. Internet portals, such as remote access and email, usually present the greatest threats. Fabric security should also be considered in defining the IT infrastructure security policy.
D 3 – Planning Fabric Security 3.5.2 Device Security Device security provides for the authorization and authentication of devices that you attach to a switch. You can configure a switch with a group of devices against which the switch authorizes new attachments by devices, other switches, or applications issuing management server commands. In addition to authorization, the switch can be configured to require authentication of the connecting device through the use of a password or secret.
D 3 – Planning Fabric Security Device: HBA_1 WWN: 10:00:00:c0:dd:07:c3:4d Security: Yes Device: HBA_2 Security: No Device: JBOD Security: No FL_Port F_Port Device: Switch_1 WWN: 10:00:00:c0:dd:07:e3:4c Security: Yes F_Port E_Port Device: Switch_2 WWN: 10:00:00:c0:dd:07:e3:4e Security: No Figure 3-3. Security Example: Switches and HBAs 1. Create a security set (Security_Set_1) on Switch_1. 2. Create a port group (Group_Port) in Security_Set_1 with Switch_1, and HBA_1 as members.
D 3 – Planning Fabric Security 3. Create an ISL group (Group_ISL) in Security_Set_1 with Switch_2 as its member. Only Switch_2 need be a member because there is no authentication between the switches. ISL Group: Group_ISL Switch_2 Node WWN: 10:00:00:c0:dd:07:e3:4e Authentication: None Binding: None 3-14 4. Configure security on HBA_1 using the appropriate management tool. Logins between the Switch_1 and HBA_1 will be challenged (CHAP) for their respective secrets.
D 3 – Planning Fabric Security 3.5.2.2 Security Example: Host Authentication Consider the fabric shown in Figure 3-4. In this fabric, only Switch_2 and HBA_2/APP_2 support security, where APP_2 is a host application. The objective is to secure the management server on Switch_2 from unauthorized access by an HBA or an associated host application.
D 3 – Planning Fabric Security 2. Create a Management Server group (Group_1) in Security_Set_2 with Switch_2 and HBA_2 or APP_2 as its member. You must specify HBAs by node worldwide name. Switches can be specified by port or node worldwide name. The type of switch worldwide name you use in the switch security database must be the same as that in the HBA security database.
D 3 – Planning Fabric Management 3.5.3 Fabric Services Fabric services include security-related functions such as inband management and SNMP. Inband management is the ability to manage switches across inter-switch links using SANbox Manager, SNMP, management server, or the application programming interface. The switch comes from the factory with inband management enabled.
