Zorluk: OrtaNetwork Topologies and Types

An enterprise organization is deploying a dedicated, high-speed network infrastructure designed specifically to interconnect database servers with high-capacity block-level storage arrays using Fibre Channel protocols. This infrastructure operates independently from the corporate user network to guarantee minimal latency and prevent bandwidth saturation from daily workstation operations. Which network classification specifically describes this dedicated block-level storage architecture?

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

Cevap

Storage Area Network (SAN)
The correct option is Storage Area Network (SAN) because it defines a dedicated, highly specialized network architecture engineered to provide servers with direct, block-level access to consolidated storage arrays separate from primary user traffic.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the scenario requirements
Identified key requirements: dedicated high-speed network, block-level storage access, Fibre Channel protocol, isolated from standard LAN client traffic.
Understanding the functional requirements isolates storage-specific network topologies from general-purpose network types.
2
Evaluate network type definitions against requirements
A Storage Area Network (SAN) is tailored specifically for block-level storage data transfer over dedicated protocols like Fibre Channel or iSCSI, satisfying all scenario criteria.
SAN architectures separate storage traffic from user network traffic to ensure predictable latency and maximum throughput.
