To complement the physical view, the Scalent Console provides a logical view of the environment that is connection centric. Instead of the vRack with five physical servers, an administrator sees seven virtual servers in a virtual network with LAN and SAN connections based on virtual switches and virtual WWPNs. That simplifies dealing with composite IT applications, such as web services and complex SOA environments. Once the physical network is wired, logical, application-centric, virtual networks can be created at will.
