Tape Drive Ethernet Connectivity and the Ethernet
Expansion Blade
LTO-5 and LTO-6 FC tape drives enable you to use tape drive Ethernet
connectivity for FIPS-certified key exchanges, tape drive log collection, tape drive
firmware updates, and tape drive firmware autoleveling via Ethernet instead of
via internal serial communication. This speeds up operations and provides the
security required for FIPS-certified key exchanges. 5U libraries can access tape
drive Ethernet connectivity directly via the library control blade. For libraries
