Data SheetQFX5100 Ethernet Switch
provides strong monitoring capabilities on the top-of-rack
switch for SAN and LAN administration teams to maintain
clear separation of management. In addition, FCoE Initiation
Protocol (FIP) snooping provides perimeter protection,
ensuring that the presence of an Ethernet layer does not
impact existing SAN security policies. FCoE link aggregation
group (LAG) active/active support is available to achieve
resilient (dual-rail) FCoE connectivity.
The FCoE transit switch functionality, including priority-based
flow control (PFC), Enhanced Transmission Selection (ETS), and
Data Center Bridging Capability Exchange (DCBX), are included
as part of the default software.
