Fibre Channel Ports |
Switch mode
(default): Minimum of 24 ports and maximum of 64 ports. Ports are
enabled in increments of 8 ports up to 64 ports via Ports on Demand
(PoD) licenses; E_Ports, F_Ports, M_Ports, D_Ports, and EX_Ports.
- Up to
48 autosensing ports that support 32Gb or 64Gb SFP+ transceivers
- Up to 8
double density (DD) ports that support either SFP+ (32Gb or
64Gb) transceivers for a single connection, or SFP-DD
transceivers that each support two 64G connections, thus
providing an additional 16 ports at 64Gb.
Access
Gateway default port mapping: 56x SFP+ F_Ports, 8x SFP+ N_Ports.
The SFP+
ports are capable of auto-negotiating to 8, 16, 32, or 64Gb speeds
depending on the SFP+ model and the minimum supported speed of the
optical transceiver at the other end of the link. |

|
Traffic load balancing |
-
Frame-based ISL Trunking load balances supports up to eight SFP+
ports per ISL trunk; up to 512Gb/s per ISL trunk when using
64Gb/s optics
- Dynamic
Path Selection (DPS) provides exchange-based load balancing
across all available ISLs.
