Abstract:

In today’s enterprise-class data centers, administrators do not have the luxury of time. Keeping track of driver and firmware versions creates a management nightmare. Brocade believes that this complexity is an unnecessary burden on administrators, which is why we developed a unified driver approach in which firmware is embedded into the driver package.
