used to achieve higher security and greater stability by providing complete isolation among devices that are connected to the same physical
SAN. In addition, FC-SP provides switch-switch and host-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.
Ease of Management
To meet the needs of all users, the Cisco MDS 9216A provides three principal modes of management: the Cisco MDS 9000 Family command-
line interface (CLI), Cisco Fabric Manager, and integration with third-party storage management tools.
The Cisco MDS 9216A presents a consistent, logical CLI. Adhering to the syntax of widely known Cisco IOS
®
Software CLI, the Cisco MDS
9000 Family CLI is easy to learn and delivers broad management capability. The Cisco MDS 9000 Family CLI is an extremely efficient and
direct interface designed to provide optimal functionality to administrators in enterprise environments.
Cisco Fabric Manager is a responsive, easy-to-use Java application that simplifies management across multiple switches and fabrics. Cisco
Fabric Manager enables administrators to perform vital tasks such as topology discovery, fabric configuration and verification, provisioning,
monitoring, and fault resolution. All functions are available through a secure interface, enabling remote management from any location.
Cisco Fabric Manager can be used independently or in conjunction with third-party management applications. Cisco provides an extensive API
for integration with third-party and user-developed management tools.
Advanced Software Packages
The Cisco MDS 9216A can be further enhanced through additional software packages that offer advanced intelligence and functionality.
Currently available software packages include the following:
●
Cisco Enterprise Package—The Cisco Enterprise Package includes a set of traffic engineering and advanced security features such as Inter-
VSAN Routing, QoS, switch-switch and host-switch authentication, LUN zoning, and read-only zones that are recommended for
enterprise SANs.
●
SAN Extension over IP Package—The Cisco SAN Extension over IP Package provides an integrated, cost-effective, and reliable business
continuance solution that uses IP infrastructure by offering FCIP for remote SAN extension, along with a variety of advanced features to
optimize the performance and manageability of FCIP links.
●
Cisco Mainframe Package—The Cisco Mainframe Package is a comprehensive collection of features required for using the Cisco MDS 9500
and MDS 9200 series switches in mainframe storage networks, including FICON protocol, Control Unit Port (CUP) management, switch
cascading, fabric binding, and intermixing.
●
Cisco Fabric Manager Server Package—The Cisco Fabric Manager Server (FMS) Package extends Cisco Fabric Manager by providing
historical performance monitoring for network traffic hot-spot analysis, centralized management services, and advanced application
integration.
Versatile Expansion
The modular design of the Cisco MDS 9216A gives it the ability to support current and future Cisco MDS 9000 Family switching or services
modules. Currently available modules include the following:
●
16-port and 32-port 2-Gbps Fibre Channel switching modules
●
12-port, 24-port, and 48-port 4-Gbps Fibre Channel switching modules
●
4-port 10-Gbps Fibre Channel Switching Module
●
The IP Services Modules, supporting iSCSI and FCIP over both four and eight ports of Gigabit Ethernet
●
The Multiprotocol Services Module, supporting 14 ports of 2-Gbps Fibre Channel and iSCSI and FCIP over two ports of Gigabit Ethernet
