摘要： Disclosed are apparatus and methods for discovering topology in a storage area network having a plurality of VSANs in a network fabric is disclosed. The VSANs include a first VSAN having a plurality of network devices. The method includes the following operations: (a) defining a first one of the network devices of the first VSAN as a Topology Update (TU) Owner, wherein the other network devices of the first VSAN are not defined as TU Owners, (b) at the first network device, receiving data that indicates a topology change in the first VSAN, (c) at the first network device, generating or updating one or more TU database(s) for the plurality of VSANs of the network fabric based on the received topology change, and (d) the first network device causing the topology change to be propagated in the form of a Topology Update across the network fabric to network devices in the plurality of VSANs of such network fabric.

摘要： Controlling access to managed objects associated with a networked device. A method comprises receiving a request from a principal for access to a managed object associated with the networked device. The managed objects are accessible based on membership in access groups that are compliant with a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). A first and a second of the access groups associated with the principal are determined. Access privileges for the principal are determined, based on the first and the second access groups. Access to the managed object is granted if permitted based on the access privileges for the principal.

摘要： Embodiments provide data in-flight (DIF) services to software applications such as virtual machines (VMs) at an application level without requiring modification to established storage protocols. In exemplary embodiments, a software application is associated with a DIF services policy indicating one or more DIF services to apply to the software application. Data transmitted by the software application to a destination is tagged based on the DIF services policy associated with the software application and transmitted to the destination.

摘要： Disclosed are apparatus and methods for facilitating communication between two devices from two different VSANs by propagating each device's presence from a first VSAN to the other device's different VSAN using a network address translation (NAT) mechanism. For instance, a first device, such as a host H1, from VSAN_A is allowed to access data from a second device, such as disk D1, of VSAN_B by propagating D1's presence into VSAN_A and H1's presence into VSAN_B. This awareness is accomplished by propagating an identifier for each device into the edge VSAN of the other device, as well as into any transit VSAN. So as to not duplicate identifiers in any one of the VSANs, a device's presence is propagated into a particular VSAN by assigning an unused domain for use by such device in the particular VSAN.

摘要翻译： 公开了通过使用网络地址转换（NAT）机制将每个设备的存在从第一VSAN传播到另一设备的不同VSAN来促进来自两个不同VSAN的两个设备之间的通信的装置和方法。 例如，允许来自VSAN_A的第一设备，例如主机H1，通过将D1的存在传播到VSAN_A和H1存在于VSAN_B中来访问来自VSAN_B的第二设备（例如盘D1）的数据。 该感知通过将每个设备的标识符传播到另一设备的边缘VSAN以及任何传输VSAN来实现。 为了不在任何一个VSAN中重复标识符，设备的存在通过分配一个未使用的域来传播到特定的VSAN中，供特定VSAN中的这种设备使用。

摘要： A method is disclosed for Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) bulk information processing. A request for a plurality of object instances stored in a storage space is received. The request specifies a condition and a maximum number of repetitions. The values of one or more object instances of the plurality of object instances are retrieved. The retrieval of object instance values is terminated when the condition is satisfied even though the maximum number of repetitions is not reached. For example, the condition may be specified by one or more pairs of Object Identifier (OID) values, wherein each pair is represented by a starting OID value and an ending OID value. In this example, the condition is satisfied when an OID value of an object instance that is retrieved is not lexicographically between the starting OID value and the ending OID value of any pair of the one or more pairs.
