1. For companies using VMware IBM System Networking s Distributed Virtual Switch 5000V sold separately enables network administrators to simplify management by having a consistent virtual and physical networking environment 5000V virtual and physical servers use the same configurations policies and management tools Network policies migrate automatically along with virtual machines VMs to ensure that security performance and access remain intact as VMs move from server to server e Simplifies network infrastructure The EN2092 1Gb Scalable Switch simplifies deployment and growth by using its innovative scalable architecture This architecture helps increase return on investment by reducing the qualification cycle while providing investment protection for additional I O bandwidth requirements in the future The extreme flexibility of the switch comes from the ability to turn on additional ports as required both down to the server and for upstream connections including 10 GbE e Integrates network management A key challenge is the management of a discrete network environment The EN2092 1Gb Scalable Switch is tightly integrated and managed through the IBM Flex System Manager The switch also supports a command line interface CLI for integration into existing scripting and automation Network management can be simplified by using port profiles topology views and virtualization management IBM Flex System EN2092 1Gb Ethernet Scalable2. Clients who want to reduce TCO and improve performance while maintaining high levels of availability and security e Clients who want to avoid or minimize oversubscription which can result in congestion and loss of performance The switch offers the following key benefits e Increases network performance With the growth of virtualization and the evolution of cloud many of today s applications require low latency and high bandwidth performance The EN2092 delivers non blocking architecture with 176 Gbps throughput and full line rate performance making it ideal for managing dynamic workloads across the network In addition the switch provides a rich Layer 2 and Layer 3 feature set that is ideal for many of today s data centers plus it offers a combined uplink bandwidth of 60 Gb e Pay as you grow flexibility The EN2092 s flexible port licensing allows you buy only the ports that you need when you need them The base switch configuration includes fourteen 1 GbE connections to the servers and ten 1 GbE uplinks You then have the flexibility of turning on more 1 GbE connections to the server and more 1 GbE or 10 GbE uplinks when you need them using IBM Feature on Demand licensing capabilities providing pay as you grow scalability e VM aware networking Delivering advanced virtualization awareness helps simplify management and automates VM mobility by making the network VM aware with IBM VMready which works with all the major hypervisors
