Traffic Isolation Zoning over FC routers with Virtual Fabrics

Traffic Isolation Zoning over FC routers with Virtual Fabrics
This section describes how you can set up TI zones over FC routers in logical fabrics. Figure 50
shows two physical chassis configured into logical switches. The initiator in FID 1 communicates
with the target in FID 3 over the EX_Ports in the base switches.
FIGURE 50 Example configuration for TI zones over FC routers in logical fabrics
Figure 51 shows a logical representation of the configuration in Figure 50. This SAN is similar to
that shown in Figure 42 on page 387 and you would set up the TI zones in the same way as
described in “Traffic Isolation Zoning over FC routers” on page 386.
