Supported switches and firmware
Table 1 lists switches and firmware families supported with this release. This does not imply that all
firmware versions listed in the left column are still supported by HP, but rather that those are the
firmware streams on which the corresponding switches are, or were, supported. It also does not imply
that all the firmware listed streams are supported on each of the corresponding switches. HP
recommends using the latest software versions to get the greatest benefit from the SAN.
