QUESTION POSED ON: 14 January 2002
Good afternoon Christopher,
I'll try to make this a brief as possible. My company is thinking of installing a SAN, implementing several SUNFire 6800 systems and attaching them to a tape storage facility with an additional tape backup. As the network representative on the project I have been asked to spec a switch that will interface with the different hardware components and our WAN clients.
I have been thinking along the lines of the CISCO 5000 to 6509 groups but maybe this is not necessary or total overkill. What do you think?
Also, where can I find existing network diagrams that would give me a "picture" of what an entry level SAN would look like.
Thank you in advance for any assistance or information you can give me. I really appreciate your site.
Regards
Craig
