Flex System FC5022 switches come standard with the following software features:
Full Fabric mode: Enables high performance 16 Gb or 8 Gb fabric switching
Access Gateway mode: Leverages NPIV to connect to any fabric without adding switch domains to
reduce management complexity
Dynamic Path Selection: Enables exchange-based load balancing across multiple Inter-Switch Links
for superior performance
Advanced Zoning: Segments a SAN into virtual private SANs to increase security and availability
Enhanced Group Management: Enables centralized and simplified management of SAN fabrics
through Brocade Network Advisor
Server Application Optimization: Allows VM QoS, authentication, and monitoring from SAN through
adapter to VM and associated virtualized application
The 24-port ESB model (part number 90Y9356) is a fully enabled switch with a complete set of licensed
features that maximizes performance, ensures availability, and simplifies management for the most
demanding applications and expanding virtualization environments. The factory-installed licenses include:
ISL Trunking: Consolidates ISLs into fault-tolerant and load-balanced trunks with bandwidth of up to
128 Gbps for greater performance and simplified management
Adaptive Networking: Ensures high-priority connections that obtain the bandwidth necessary for
optimum performance
Advanced Performance Monitoring: Provides end-to-end visibility into fabric performance to
maximize performance tuning and the utilization of fabric resources
Fabric Watch: Monitors and creates alerts based on the health of switch and fabric elements
Extended Fabrics: Extends Fibre Channel SANs beyond traditional distance limitations for replication
and backup at full bandwidth
Supported Fibre Channel standards
