Brocade Glossary 31
Publication Number: 53-1000040-03
Glossary
static route A static route is a route that is assigned to a specific path (using the uRouteConfig command), and will
not change when a topology change occurs, unless the path used by the route becomes unavailable. A
static route can be assigned only when the active routing policy is port-based. When device-based or
exchange-based routing is active, you cannot assign static routes.
stealth mode A method used in some switches to simulate Brocade switches using QuickLoop.
Stitch The name of the first-generation Brocade Fabric ASIC. This is the ASIC that is used in the SilkWorm
1000 series of switches.
storage A device used to store data, such as a disk or tape.
storage area
network
See SAN.
store-and-
forward
A switching technique that requires buffering an entire frame before making a routing decision.
striping A RAID technique for writing a file to multiple disks on a block-by-block basis, with or without parity.
switch A Fabric Channel device for connecting storage and servers.
switch name The user assigned name of a switch.
switch port A port on a switch. Switch ports can be E_Ports, F_Ports, or FL_Ports.
switch-to-
switch
authentication
The process of authenticating both switches in a switch-to-switch connection using digital certificates.
See also authentication and digital certificate.
SWL Short wavelength. A type of fiber optic cabling that is based on 850 mm lasers and supports 1.0625,
2.125, and 4.25 Gbit/sec link speeds. Can also refer to the type of GBIC or SFP. See also LWL.
syslogd Syslog daemon. This UNIX style daemon can be used to forward error messages off the switch to a log
on a management workstation.
T
tape pipelining A Fabric OS feature that accelerates the writes to tape devices over FCIP from a host; it eliminates the
latency associated with the sequential nature of a tape device, thus forcing the host to send multiple
outstanding commands and buffering associated data at the remote FR4-18i or SilkWorm 7500.
target A storage device on a Fibre Channel network. See also initiator.
TC Track changes.
TCP/IP Transmission Control Protocol Internet Protocol.
telnet A virtual terminal emulation used with TCP/IP. “Telnet” is sometimes used as a synonym for the
Brocade Fabric OS CLI.
