Broadcast Support

Broadcast is supported on the switch and allows for TCP/IP support. Broadcast is implemented using the proposed standard specified in Multi-Switch Broadcast for FC-SW-3, T11 Presentation Number T11/02-031v0. Fabric Shortest Path First (FSPF) is used to set up a fabric spanning tree used in transmission of broadcast frames. Broadcast frames are retransmitted on all ISLs indicated in the spanning tree and all online N_Ports and NL_Ports. Broadcast zoning is supported with Access Control List (ACL) hard zones. When a broadcast frame is received, these hard zones are enforced at the N_Ports and NL_Ports. If the originator of the broadcast is in a hard zone, the frame is retransmitted on all online N_Ports and NL_Ports within the hard zone. If the originator of the broadcast frame is not in a hard zone, the frame is retransmitted on online N_Ports and NL_Ports that are not in a hard zone. The default setting is disabled.

In-band Management

In-band management is the ability to manage switches across inter-switch links using SANsurfer Switch Manager, SNMP, management server, or the application programming interface. The switch comes from the factory with in-band management enabled. If you disable in-band management on a particular switch, you can no longer communicate with that switch by means other than a direct Ethernet or serial connection.
