Cisco proprietary? edit

My understanding is that more than a few vendors have toyed with this concept, under different names. VSAN appears to be used in this particular way by Cisco. VMware have a different technology that they called VSAN. Brocade having something called LSAN (Logical Storage Area Network) that is basically Cisco's VSAN.

Perhaps someone who knows could fix the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.240.207.146 (talk) 03:35, 23 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

That is true VSAN - is a Cisco proprietary term, In T11 comitee standards this thing is called Virtual Fabric(s) I believe. And that is also how Brocade calls this technology (segmenting physical switch in separate logical switches). While LSAN is a different thing in Brocade FC world related to FC-to-FC routing. Not sure on Qlogic terminology. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.68.1.214 (talk) 21:02, 7 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

VMware vSAN edit

I think there should be a split or proxy page for VSAN (Fibre Channel) and VMware vSAN. It's so confusing now. APS (Full Auto) (talk) 04:56, 26 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
