Managing Switch Feature Upgrades

The following features are available to upgrade your switch through the purchase and installation of a license key:

„Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007 is a workstation-based Java® application that provides a graphical user interface for fabric management. This includes Performance View which graphs port performance. Enterprise Fabric Suite 2007 comes with a free 30-day trial license.

„Fabric Security provides for Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Secure Shell (SSH) connection security, device security using Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP), and remote authentication using a Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server.

„SANdoctor provides tools for Fibre Channel connection verification (Fcping command), Fibre Channel route tracing (Fctrace command), and transceiver diagnostic information (Show Media command).

„Port Activation enables additional Fibre Channel ports up to the 20-port maximum.

Installing a feature license key is not disruptive, nor does it require a switch reset. To order a license key, contact your switch distributor or your authorized reseller.
