Access Gateway mode
The Access Gateway feature on the Brocade Encryption switch and the Brocade 8000 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 N_Port (rather than as E_Port in
case of a regular switch).
