Ethernet port, the link fails over to another port. All network traffic is
distributed across the active links.
Brocade VDX with VCS Fabric technology offers unique features to support
virtualized server and storage environments. Brocade VMaware network
automation; for example, provides secure connectivity and full visibility to
virtualized server resources with dynamic learning and activation of port
profiles. By communicating directly with VMware vCenter, it eliminates
manual configuration of port profiles and supports VMmobility across VCS
fabrics within a data center.
The Brocade® 6510 with Gen 5 Fibre Channel Technology simplifies the
storage network infrastructure through innovative technologies and
supports the VSPEX highly virtualized topology design. The Brocade
validated network solution simplifies server connectivity by deploying as
full-fabric switch and enables fast, easy effective scaling from 24 to 48
Ports on Demand (PoD). The Brocade 6510 Fibre Channel switches
maximizes availability with redundant architecture for Block Based storage
traffic and hot-pluggable components and non-disruptive upgrades.
For block, the EMC VNX a unified storage platform is attached highly
availability Brocade storage network redundancy by two ports per storage
processor. If a link is lost on the storage processor front end port, the link
fails over to another port. All storage network traffic is distributed across the
active links.
Figure 7 depicts an example of the Brocade network topology for block
based storage.
