Do I need ISL Trucking license!?
I want link two HP 8/8 (8) Full Fabric Ports Enabled SAN Switch (AM867B) with a long fiber cable (HP 8Gb LW B-series 10km FC SFP+ 1 Pack x 2).
1- Did I need ISL Trucking license (HP B-series 8-24 Port ISL Trucking LTU) for these SAN switches?
2-Can I connect two SAN switch with one fiber without these license?
Thanks

Re: Do I need ISL Trucking license!?
The trunking license allows two or more ISLs connected to the same ASIC pair to function as a logical-sum of ISLs.
You do not need an ISL trunking license with only one ISL between switches.
Yes, you can connect two SAN switches without the license.
