For a customer we need to connect a Brocade fabric to a Cisco fabric.
The Brocades are rebranded and now called HP 4/8 and 2/4 (I think). The 4/8 is an EMC 200E (or DS-220E) with a recent firmware (5.something). The Cisco's are MDS9124E's (in a Blade chassis) with SAN-OS 3.2 (3a).
Since both fabrics are already in production I wanted to try this out first, but I only have some old DS-16B2's in my lab (Brocade 3800 if I'm correct). These lab-switches have the 3.2.1c firmware on them.
Is there a way to safely test this connectivity in my lab ? Is is possible in the first place ?
What are the steps and caveats in the customer's set up ? (with supported switches)
