Activating additional 8/80 SAN Switch ports
By default, the 8/80 SAN Switch model integrates 48 licensed ports (ports 0 through 47). To
enable additional ports, you must purchase and install the HPE StorageWorks 8/80 SAN Switch
8-Gb 16-port Upgrade LTU (part number T5520A):
•
To enable ports 48 through 63, you must purchase and install one upgrade license.
•
To enable ports 64 through 80, you must purchase and install a second upgrade license.

Encryption SAN Switch features
The Encryption SAN Switch has the following features:
•
32 front-end 1, 2, 4, or 8 Gb/s autosensing F_Port, FL_Port, E_Port, EX_Port, or M_Ports
to connect host servers, SAN disks, SAN tapes, edge switches, or core switches
•
Encryption and decryption engines to provide in-line crypto services with up to 96 Gb/s
throughput for disk I/O and up to 48 Gb/s throughput for tape I/O (mix of ciphertext and
cleartext traffic)
•
Integrated with HPE SKM system
•
Full 1:1 subscription on all 32 ports at 8 Gb/s
•
HA cluster, DEK cluster, and EG to enable transparent failover, host MPIO failover, and
centralized management of multiple encryption switches
•
Support for automatic expiry or CLI manual based re-keying
•
Compliance with encryption standards: AES256-XTS 1619.1 (for disk); AES256-GCM IEEE
1619.2 (for tape)
•
Smart Card
•
Hardware-based key management and generation
