Quick Start Guide
The iSR6142 Intelligent Storage Router provides remote and local SAN island connectivity. The major applications are:
❑
Remote Data Replications between Fibre Channel (FC) storage arrays
❑
Connecting remote FC Servers to local FC storage
❑
Connecting iSCSI Storage to FC storage area network (SAN)
❑
Allocating Resources (FC storage arrays, FC Virtual Tape Libraries, and FC tapes) from different SANs within
the data center to FC servers and/or iSCSI servers without worrying about E-port compatibility.
Suggested Configurations
