Brocade SAN Switch SMI Agent

This connector discovers the enclosures and fiber-channel ports of SAN switches as well as various environment sensors (temperatures, fans, power supplies, etc.). It relies on the Brocade SMI Agent Proxy and can monitor multiple switches.

This connector supersedes:

Target

Typical platform: Brocade SAN

Operating system: Storage System

Prerequisites

Leverages: Brocade SMI Agent
