SAN
Protocol Analysis & Test- Fibre Channel, iSCSI,
InfiniBand

Large
Storage Area Networks (SANs) are being installed worldwide.
Monitoring the performance of and troubleshooting these
sophisticated storage systems requires powerful
instrumentation. In 1996, Finisar introduced the first
protocol analyzer for 1 Gb/s Fibre Channel SANs with
multiple megabyte trace buffers. Finisar’s protocol
analyzer quickly became the industry standard for SAN test
and analysis. Finisar’s product line continues to expand
to include new and emerging SAN protocols including,
InfiniBand and iSCSI/Gigabit Ethernet. Finisar offers the
breadth of performance-enhancing tools, and network test and
analysis products – Analyzers, Bit
Error Rate Test Systems , Error
Injectors and Generators
– necessary to optimize today’s SAN development
environments. GTX Analyzers can be used in conjunction
with Finisar
Taps for data aquisition and access to network traffic,
including all physical errors, from both sides of a full
duplex link. Taps are fault tolerant and enable network
monitoring or analysis tools to be dynamically inserted into
Ethernet or Fibre Channel segments without breaking the
link. Finisar is currently working on FCIA's SANMark
scripts such as 2001, 2003, 3001, 3002, 3010, 3020
& 4001. Click here for Technical Whitepapers
