Access Gateway mode
The Access Gateway feature on the Brocade Encryption switch enables interoperability with the
Cisco fabrics. The Access Gateway mode of the switch presents standard F_Ports to the hosts, but
it connects to the Enterprise fabric as an N_Port (rather than as an E_Port in the case of a regular
switch).
