The Virtual Connect Fibre Channel module works by aggregating multiple
FC HBA ports over a single N-port uplink through the use of N_port_ID
virtualization (NPIV). NPIV allows multiple distinguishable identities (multiple
port WWNs and port IDs) over a single N-port connection. Most Fibre
Channel SAN switch vendors have support for NPIV in their latest firmware
release. By conforming to the NPIV standard, SAN equipment interoperability
simplified. The Virtual Connect Fibre Channel Module Provides basic 4:1,
8:1, or 16:1 NPIV Fibre Channel concentration.

Data Center Connectivity Each Virtual Connect Fibre Channel module supports up to 4 SAN fabrics
and is typically connected to a Fibre Channel switch that has been
configured to run in NPIV mode. The 4 uplink ports are speed selectable
from 1, 2, or 4Gb/s.

The setup wizard allows SAN administrators to name the fabric that servers
will connect into and set the oversubscription rate. Fibre Channel boot
parameters and WWN administration are configurable options that can be
integrated into server profiles.

integrated into server profiles.
In an NPIV environment, there is an initial brief login function between the
Virtual Connect Fibre Channel Module and the data center switch. Once
completed, all HBA connections appear as though they are directly
connected between the server and the SAN switch. The Virtual Connect Fibre
Channel Module appears as a pass-thru device to the SAN, yet cables are
reduced as high as 16:1
