Universal ports that self-configure as E_Ports, F_Ports, M_Ports, or FL_Ports. EX_Ports
are activated on a per-port basis with the optional HPE B-series 48-80 Port SAN Switch
Integrated Routing LTU.
This license provides native FCR on a per-port basis, rather than limiting routing ports to
those on a dedicated routing blade or switch. Just like traditional FCR, IR uses EX_Ports to
import and export devices between fabrics, enabling selective device sharing while
maintaining remote fabric isolation.
•
Integrates a USB port that provides storage for firmware updates, output of the
supportsave
command and storage for configuration uploads and downloads.
