As storage islands are consolidated and migrated to enterprise-wide fabrics new security challenges arise . End users can take advantage of a wide range of SANTap solutions from several third-party appliance and application vendors to perform heterogeneous data migration , remote replication , snapshots , continuous data protection ( CDP ) , and information lifecycle management ( ILM ) through intelligent tiered storage . The SPAN destination port is used for remote monitoring in a destination switch . With tools like VMWare and Parallels , Data Centers can significantly reduce operational and environmental costs by reducing the physical count of servers while maintaining an adequate number of logical servers to meet the demands of their customers . This archived data is used to generate daily , weekly , monthly , and yearly consolidated reports . In another step toward deploying efficient , cost-effective , consolidated storage networks , the Cisco MDS 9500 Series of multilayer directors supports IVR , the industry 's first routing functionality for Fibre Channel . The Remote SPAN ( RSPAN ) feature enables ability to remotely monitor traffic for one or more SPAN sources distributed in one or more source switches in a Fibre Channel fabric . A non-discriminatory environment , 40 hour work weeks , compensated overtime , casual dress , desktop computing , measurable quality , project orientation and long commutes were all unthinkable 100 years ago . A comprehensive Cisco MDS 9000 SAN-OS Software release methodology has been developed that not only preserves the integrity and stability of mission-critical storage networks , but also has the flexibility to respond to market needs for timely delivery of advanced storage networking features with multilayer intelligence . The next phase of the attack consists in identifying the vulnerabilities of the remote system . All functions are available through a secure interface , enabling remote management from any location . In another step toward deploying the most efficient , cost-effective , consolidated storage networks , the Cisco MDS 9000 Family 4-Gbps Fibre Channel switching modules support IVR functionality for Fibre Channel .
