Servers reach their disk arrays over a dedicated network that carries only that storage traffic. Which network type is that?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
The disks have their own road, and ordinary laptops are not on it. You call that a storage area network. Office Wi-Fi, a headset bubble, and a guest network are not a dedicated path for disk arrays.
Full Explanation
A storage area network is a dedicated network for storage traffic between servers and storage systems. Disk arrays reached only over that network match a SAN. A wireless LAN is a local radio network for users. Storage traffic is not automatically wireless. A personal area network is the short range around one person. Disk arrays for servers are not that bubble. Guest Wi-Fi is a user network. It is not the dedicated path for disk arrays. Exam caveat: a SAN can ride Ethernet in some designs and still be a storage network if it is dedicated to that traffic. The dedication is the point, not the connector color. Operational check: confirm the servers see the arrays over that network and that user laptops are not asked to join it.
