Overview

The Brocade SAN Theory and Practice course covers the fundamental aspects of building storage networks based on the Fiber Channel protocol stack. Students are given the opportunity to examine in detail the theory of SAN in terms of key issues of interaction between devices in storage networks.

The course focuses on the implementation of Fiber Channel technologies in Brocade products, and the implementation of laboratory work is based, among other things, on Brocade Gen7 hardware. The training covers the basics of implementing and administering storage networks, as well as an overview of the outstanding functionality of Brocade products.

For students of the B-SAN-001 course, the BSAN-test Administering Brocade SAN is included in the cost of training.

Audience for this course

Storage administrators
Storage Area Network Administrators

The course is designed for students of varying degrees of training in relation to the issues of building a SAN: from the zero level and above.

Prerequisites for this course

Basic skills in storage technologies
