A wide range of IBM System Storage mid-range and enterprise Storage Area Network (SAN) infrastructure simplifica- tion and business continuity solutions can be created with the IBM System Storage SAN04B-R multiprotocol router. Infrastructure simplification solu- tions for the IBM Power™ Systems and System x™ family include disaster tol- erance over metropolitan and global IP networks with IBM System Storage disk arrays, tape libraries and IBM Tivoli® Storage Manager data protection software.

Local site infrastructure simplification

Utilizes existing Internet, IP- based Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) or Wide Area Network (WAN) infrastructures for metro and global SAN extension for business continuity solutions

Integrated IBM System Storage™ SAN b-type (Brocade) switch management helps sim- plify installation and administra- tion and helps provide fabric investment protection

solutions may be extended to one or more remote sites for enhanced data protection and disaster tolerance. The IBM System Storage SAN04B-R multi- protocol router provides Fibre Channel over IP and FCIP Tunneling Service for distance extension which can enable cost effective and manageable metro
