Zorluk: OrtaNetwork Types and Topologies

A network administrator is deploying a dedicated, high-speed network designed exclusively to connect enterprise database servers to consolidated block-level storage arrays with minimal latency. The network is physically segregated from standard client local traffic and utilizes Fibre Channel host bus adapters. Which of the following network types best describes this deployment?

  1. SAN (Storage Area Network)Cevap
  2. B
    LAN (Local Area Network)
  3. C
    MAN (Metropolitan Area Network)
  4. D
    WAN (Wide Area Network)

Cevap

Storage Area Network (SAN)
The correct option is Storage Area Network (SAN). A SAN is a dedicated high-speed network that interconnects and presents shared pools of block-level storage devices to servers. It utilizes specialized protocols such as Fibre Channel or iSCSI to achieve ultra-low latency and isolates storage traffic from general client network communications.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the operational requirements presented in the scenario.
Identified key requirements: dedicated high-speed infrastructure, block-level storage interconnectivity, server-to-storage isolation, and Fibre Channel utilization.
Understanding the specific operational domain differentiates specialized storage networks from general communications networks.
2
Compare the requirements against standard network type definitions.
A Storage Area Network (SAN) is explicitly designed for block storage transport between servers and storage arrays using technologies like Fibre Channel or iSCSI.
Selecting the correct network type depends on matching workload characteristics and architecture to network classifications.
