Brocade Network Advisor
• Brocade Ethernet Fabrics: Compared to classic hierarchical Ethernet architectures, Ethernet fabrics provide higher levels of performance, utilization,
availability, and operational simplicity to meet the business needs of virtualized data centers today and into the future. Brocade Ethernet Fabrics were
designed for the mission data center requirements, supporting iSCSI, FCoE, and scale-out NAS.
• Fabric-based Encryption for data-at-rest: Any or all data stored on disk and tape devices connected to the same fabric, can be encrypted with a single solution
BROCADE ETHERNET FABRIC TECHNOLOGY
Brocade VCS Fabric technology helps organizations create efficient data center networks that just work. Ethernet fabrics built on Brocade VCS Fabric
technology provide unmatched VM awareness and automation compared to traditional network architectures and competitive fabric offerings. In addition,
they increase flexibility and IT agility, enabling organizations to transition smoothly to elastic, mission-critical networks in highly virtualized data centers.
