Figure 3. Dedicated SAN Solution in the High Availability Option
Dedicated SAN Solution In The Non-Redundant Option
The dedicated SAN solution in the non-redundant option isolates the SAN traffic from the client traffic, but without
redundant switches. All the client cables are connected to the client switch and the SAN or internal network cables are
connected to the SAN switch. Peer connections are always back to back.
CAUTION: In this configuration, the switches become a single point of failure.
NOTE: It is recommended that you separate the SAN subnets using virtual LANs.
