As IT organizations continue to face the increased complexity of system
configuration and ever-rising operational costs, they are looking for new
ways to simplify their IT environments. To address this challenge, the IBM Converged
Switch B32 is designed to offer a versatile switch that supports both Fibre
Channel and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) to help organizations simplify
their growing infrastructures.
The IBM Converged
Switch B32 provides a reliable platform that helps reduce cable clutter, equipment
acquisition costs, and operational costs associated with power consumption
and cooling. This unique top-of-rack switch features a low-profile 1U form
factor and low power consumption (a maximum 350 watts), leading the way toward
a "greener" data center.
The IBM Converged
Switch B32 features 8 Fibre Channel ports along with 24 ports for 10 Gigabit
Ethernet. The Fibre Channel ports operate at 8 Gbps, and the 10 Gigabit Ethernet
ports support Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE) and are capable of transporting
both storage and LAN traffic, eliminating the need for separate Storage Area
Network (SAN) and LAN adapters.
To support the most data-intensive applications, the IBM Converged
Switch B32 is designed to deliver a non-blocking architecture.
The top-of-rack IBM Converged Switch B32 connects to servers through
Converged Network Adapters (CNAs). The consolidated SAN and LAN server ports
and corresponding cables simplify configuration and cabling in server cabinets
to reduce acquisition costs. With fewer components using power or requiring
cooling, organizations can save significant operating costs as well.
FCoE preserves Fibre Channel constructs and services. It integrates seamlessly
into existing Fibre Channel environments, enabling organizations to maximize
the value of their current investments. In addition, FCoE extends the reach
of Fibre Channel management applications and tools, enabling organizations
to manage FCoE-attached devices with their existing SAN management applications.
The switch utilizes ASIC technology that supports port trunking for Fibre
Channel and link aggregation for Ethernet. For Fibre Channel, an Inter-Switch
Link (ISL) trunk can supply up to 64 Gbps of balanced data throughput. In
addition to reducing congestion and increasing bandwidth, ISL Trunking utilizes
ISLs more efficiently to preserve the number of usable switch ports. For Ethernet,
the IBM Converged
Switch B32 supports standards-based Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP).
Additional performance capabilities include 32 virtual channels on each
ISL, enabling antistarvation capabilities at the port level to avoid performance
degradation. In addition, exchange-based Dynamic Path Selection (DPS) optimizes
fabric-wide performance and load balancing by automatically routing data to
the most efficient available path in the fabric. DPS further augments ISL
Trunking to provide more effective load balancing in certain configurations.
The IBM Converged
Switch B32 provides a reliable foundation for disaster recovery and business
continuance by employing enterprise-class availability features such as hot-swappable,
redundant, and integrated fan and power supply assemblies. Combined with a
wide range of diagnostic and monitoring functions, these capabilities help
ensure highly available SAN environments.
In conjunction with Brocade SAN extension products, the IBM Converged
Switch B32 enables servers and storage devices to reside remotely, giving
organizations a reliable way to create highly available environments that
support the most sophisticated business continuance and disaster recovery
initiatives.
The IBM Converged
Switch B32 utilizes the same Brocade Fabric operative system that supports
the entire IBM b-type
Fibre Channel product family, from fixed port switches to the SAN768B Fabric
Backbone. This helps ensure backward compatibility that enables the IBM Converged
Switch B32 to seamlessly integrate with existing Fibre Channel investments.
This design also enables forward compatibility among Brocade solutions,
simplifying maintenance and field upgrades while providing peace of mind for
future data center expansion. Moreover, organizations can monitor and manage
the IBM Converged
Switch B32 with fabric robust management applications such as the IBM Data Center
Fabric Manager (DCFM).
By networking Fibre Channel switches and the IBM Converged Switch B32 under a common
management platform, Fabric OS simplifies management through standard interfaces
and support for third-party management applications. The IBM Converged
Switch B32 supports switch management through a Command Line Interface (CLI),
Web Tools, or DCFM, which includes support for FCoE and CEE.
The IBM Converged
Switch B32 is designed for the highest level of fabric security to help organizations
safeguard their critical information. It utilizes Advanced Zoning as well
as advanced port and switch Access Control Lists (ACLs) to simplify administration
and significantly increase control over data access. To simplify management
access security, the IBM Converged Switch B32 supports Active Directory with
LDAP.
The IBM Converged
Switch B32 includes the following features:
Optional features
The IBM Converged
Switch B32 supports SFP and SFP+ optical transceivers. For the Fibre Channel
connections, the B32 uses SFP and SFP+ transceivers that support any combination
of SWL and LWL optical media. For the CEE connections, the B32 uses SFP+ transceivers
that support either optical or active twinax copper cables. The optical SFP+
transceivers support both SR and LR modules. Twinax cables support distances
of 1 meter, 3 meters, and 5 meters.

Advanced performance monitor (#7404): Performance Monitoring Activation
provides performance monitoring capability to help identify end-to-end bandwidth
usage by host/target pairs and is designed to provide information for capacity
planning.
Trunking activation (#7405): ISL Trunking Activation is designed
to enable FC packets to be efficiently distributed across multiple Inter-Switch
connections (links) between two SAN b-type fabric switches, while preserving
in-order delivery. ISL Trunking is supported between any of the supported
2 Gbps, 4 Gbps, or 8 Gbps b-type models. Both b-type switches must have ISL
Trunking activated. All the 8 Gbps platforms support a trunk group with up
to eight ports, and up to 64 Gbps ISL trunks. The trunking groups are based
on the user port number, with contiguous eight ports as one group. When connecting
the 8 Gbps-capable models to legacy 2 Gbps or 4 Gbps capable b-type fabric
switch models, ISL Trunking is supported with link speeds operational at lowest
