Join Neil Anderson for an in-depth discussion in this video Fibre Channel, part 2: Security - zoning and LUN masking, part of Introduction to SAN and NAS Storage.
- This lecture is part two on Fiber Channel…and here you'll learn how we secure…our Fiber Channel storage through the use of zoning…on our switches and LUN masking on the storage systems.…(peppy, techno music)…First thing to cover is Fiber Channel Zoning.…Zoning is configured on your fiber channel switches…and it controls which host are allowed to communicate…with each other over a fiber channel network.…
Initiators, that's typically your normal servers…will be allowed to communicate with the targets,…that's your storage system,…but initiators will not be allowed to communicate…with each other over fiber channel.…Now this sometimes confuses people and you think wait,…my servers need to be able to talk to each other.…Yes they do, but they don't need to do that…over the fiber channel network.…If we look at the infrastructure again here,…you see that you've got your normal ethernet network…that your clients are connecting to the servers to…and the servers can connect to each other…over that network up at the top as well.…
