CAMPBELL, Calif. -- Silverback Systems, Inc. today announced it completed a major upgrade to its iSNAP(R) product family by including advanced networking features that address evolving requirements in the IP storage networking market.
The advanced networking features -- especially important at the enterprise level -- enable port aggregation/trunking (corresponding to 802.3AD), VLAN (virtual LAN) tagging, jumbo frames and IPV6 (Internet Protocol version 6). These features benefit customers by providing ease of network management, basic network security, and investment protection as the industry migrates to an expanded IP addressing methodology. In addition, customers can now avoid purchasing additional costly equipment to achieve the same functionality that is now integrated seamlessly into iSNAP firmware.
"By offering this combination of advanced networking features in our iSNAP product family, we are delivering the most comprehensive and competitive product offering in the IP storage networking market," said Ron Kroesen, vice president of marketing and sales at Silverback.
