DCNM-SAN Server Features

</h1>
<a name="wp257200"> </a><p class="pBody">
Cisco DCNM-SAN Server has the following features:

</p>
<div class="pSmartList1"><ul class="pSmartList1">
<a name="wp257201"> </a><li class="pSmartList1"><b style="font-weight: normal" class="cBold">Multiple fabric management</b>&#8212; DCNM-SAN Server monitors multiple physical fabrics under the 
same user interface. This facilitates managing redundant fabrics. A licensed DCNM-SAN Server 
maintains up-to-date discovery information on all configured fabrics so device status and 
interconnections are immediately available when you open the DCNM-SAN Client.
</li>
<a name="wp257204"> </a><li class="pSmartList1"><b style="font-weight: normal" class="cBold">Continuous health monitoring</b><b class="cBold">&#8212;</b>MDS health is monitored continuously, so any events that occurred 
since the last time you opened the DCNM-SAN Client are captured.
</li>
<a name="wp257205"> </a><li class="pSmartList1"><b style="font-weight: normal" class="cBold">Roaming user profiles</b>&#8212;The licensed DCNM-SAN Server uses the roaming user profile feature to 
store your preferences and topology map layouts on the server, so that your user interface will be 
consistent regardless of what computer you use to manage your storage networks.
</li>
</ul></div>
<a name="wp257206"> </a><p class="pBodyAutonumNoRule">
<strong>Note	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong> You must have the same release of Cisco DCNM-SAN Client and Cisco DCNM-SAN Server.

</p>
<a name="wp280018"> </a><p class="pBodyAutonumNoRule">
<strong>Note	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong> You will not be able to manage a SAN fabric if the DCNM-SAN Server is going through a IP NAT 
firewall to access the SAN fabric. All the IP addresses that are discovered in a SAN fabric must be 
directly reachable by the DCNM-SAN Server.
