  • Abstract
    Storage area networks (SAN) have become an essential part in today´s enterprise computing. This paper reports performance results of INSTANT (integrated storage area network); a metro WDM ring network based SAN, under balanced and unbalanced traffic conditions. Network performance, in terms of throughput, delay, and packet dropping is presented.
