●
For 4-Gbps ports, each port group consisting of 4 ports has a pool of 64 buffer credits, with
a default of 16 buffer credits per port. When extended distances are required, up to 64
buffer credits can be allocated to a single port within the port group. This extensibility is
available without additional licensing. Each of the 10-Gbps ports has 64 buffer credits.
●
PortChannels allow users to aggregate up to 16 physical ISLs into a single logical bundle,
providing optimized bandwidth use across all links. The bundle can consist of any port from
the switch, helping ensure that the bundle remains active even in the event of a port failure.
●
Fabric Shortest Path First (FSPF)-based multipathing provides the intelligence to load
balance across up to 16 equal-cost paths and, in the event of a switch failure, dynamically
reroute traffic.
●
QoS can be used to manage bandwidth and control latency, to prioritize critical traffic.
●
Comprehensive port and flow statistics facilitate sophisticated performance analysis and
service-level agreement (SLA) accounting.
Advanced Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Tools
Management of storage networks requires proactive diagnostics, tools to verify connectivity and
route latency, and mechanisms for capturing and analyzing traffic. The Cisco MDS 9134 integrates
the industry's most advanced analysis and debugging tools. Power-on self-test (POST) and online
diagnostics provide proactive health monitoring. The Cisco MDS 9134 provides the integrated
hardware functions required to implement diagnostic capabilities such as Fibre Channel
Traceroute to detail the exact path and timing of flows, and SPAN to intelligently capture network
traffic. After traffic has been captured, it can be analyzed with the Cisco Fabric Analyzer, an
embedded Fibre Channel analyzer. With the Cisco MDS 9134, Cisco delivers a comprehensive
toolset for troubleshooting and analysis of an organization's storage network.
Comprehensive Security
In recognition of the need for unassailable security in storage networks, the Cisco MDS 9134
offers an extensive security framework to protect highly sensitive data crossing today's enterprise
networks.
●
VSANs are used to achieve higher security and greater stability by providing complete
isolation among devices that are connected to the same physical SAN.
●
Intelligent packet inspection at the port level, including the use of access control lists
(ACLs) for hardware enforcement of zones, VSANs, and advanced port security features
are provided.
●
Extended zoning capabilities help ensure that broadcasts are restricted to the selected
zones (the broadcast zones).
●
FC-SP provides switch-to-switch and host-to-switch Diffie-Hellman Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol (DH-CHAP) authentication supporting RADIUS or TACACS+, to
help ensure that only authorized devices access protected storage networks.
These features, in conjunction with management access and control plane security, makes the
Cisco MDS 9000 family among the most secure platforms in its class.
