SNC 6101 User’s Guide 7

• Policy-based event logging and e-mail notification

• Device-level diagnostics, reporting, and configuration

All of these functions are embedded into a point and click interface designed to simplify management. The

AMC receives information from Scalar storage networking libraries using the industry standard SNMP

protocol. Because ADIC uses an industry standard protocol, information can be directed from ADIC libraries

to framework applications. These framework applications can use SNMP Traps to generate reports and

pager alerts as part of an enterprise management program. For more information, refer to the ADIC

Management Console User’s Guide.

Access Security Capabilities

The SNC is aware of the hosts and devices that are attached to its interfaces and it provides access security

between hosts and devices. Access security between different hosts and devices is a requirement for multi-

initiator SAN solutions. Using the ADIC Management Console you can partition the SAN for different levels

of access and performance.

The SNC provides two tools for managing access security: Channel Zoning and Scalar Firewall Manager.

Depending upon the unit you have purchased, one or both of these options will be available.

Channel Zoning

Channel zoning is a means of managing the access security between SAN connections and SCSI channels

on a channel-by-channel basis.

• Channel zoning can be used to secure access between a server and its storage; for example,

segregating them from other servers and their respective storage.

• The default settings allow all SAN connections to access all SCSI Channels.

The channel zoning capability is always available to users of the SNC 6101. For more information, refer to

the ADIC Management Console User’s Guide.

Scalar Firewall Manager

Scalar Firewall Manager (SFM) technology enables SANs with multiple users to share the same

connectivity channels or pipes to access the same or different storage elements or resources. Therefore,

multiple virtual private connections can be created on the same storage networking infrastructure.

SFM is a Virtual Private connection or channel between a storage element and the user of that element in

a Storage Area Network. Scalar Firewall Manager is a method of access security that manages the access

between an initiator (user, host, system) to a target/LUN (device, disk, or tape) while protecting and

preserving such permission.

• SFM is completely host independent and requires no software components on the host.

• SFM has no interface dependencies and supports Fibre Channel, SCSI or any other SAN interface.

• SFM supports SAN connectivity/fan-out products such as switches.

• SFM is independent of the storage elements and requires no change in legacy or in new storage

devices.

An optional automatic host registration service that sends periodic host status information to SFM is

provided. For more information, refer to the ADIC Management Console User’s Guide.
