Building SANs with Brocade Fabric Switches

Brocade switches provide the intelligent architecture that connects Storage Area Networks (SANs) to Local Area Networks and Wide Area Networks. Brocade switches provide the same functionality to Storage Area Networks as Cisco switches provide to the Internet. Building SANs with Brocade Fibre Channel Fabric Switches is written for system administrators who are designing, building, and maintaining Storage Area Networks with Brocade fibre switches. The book aims to provide the reader with all of the techniques necessary to integrate fibre-based switches with an IP-based network.
