What is the purpose of WWN in FC SAN? (Choose two.)
WWNs (World Wide Names) in a Fibre Channel (FC) Storage Area Network (SAN) are primarily used for identification purposes. They uniquely identify entities within the fabric for management and configuration purposes. Specifically, they are used for the identification of zone members, which helps in establishing which devices can communicate with each other within a SAN (option A). They are also employed for identification via the Storage Name Server (SNS), enabling devices to register and query network entities within a SAN (option C). Other options do not align with the core use cases of WWNs in an FC SAN.
