Port Bandwidth Reservation, available on all Cisco MDS 9000 Fibre Channel switching modules, enables switching
bandwidth to be dedicated to specific ports. This unique Cisco feature gives you great flexibility in bandwidth
allocation to support a mix of applications within a single module, including high-performance ISLs. By combining
Cisco 24-Port, 48-Port, and 4/44-Port Host-Optimized 8-Gbps Fibre Channel switching modules in a single modular
chassis, you can design storage networks optimized for cost and performance in a wide range of application
environments. This application-optimized approach to port deployment can reduce the number of switches and ISLs
required in a storage network, in many cases eliminating the need for core-edge network topologies. Using these
switching modules, the Cisco MDS 9513 Multilayer Director can scale up to 528 ports per chassis or 1584 ports per
rack: fewer switches simplify management and reduce deployment and operational costs, resulting in significantly
lower TCO. Figure 1 shows the three configurations of Cisco MDS 9000 Family 8-Gbps Fibre Channel switching
modules.
Cisco 8-Gbps Fibre Channel switching modules are hot-swappable and 1/2/4/8-Gbps autosensing compatible, and
support hot-swappable, Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) and Enhanced Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP+) LC
interfaces. Individual ports can be configured with Cisco 4- and 8-Gbps short-wave or long wave SFPs and SFP+s
for connectivity up to 10 kilometers. Additionally, ports can be configured with Cisco 2- and 4-Gbps coarse wave
division multiplexing (CWDM) SFPs for connectivity up to 100 kilometers at 2 Gbps, or 40 kilometers at 4 Gbps.
Each port supports 250 buffer credits for maximum extensibility without requiring additional licensing. With the Cisco
Enterprise Package, up to 4095 buffer credits can be allocated to an individual port, enabling full link bandwidth over
thousands of kilometers with no degradation in link utilization.

Data Sheet
Intelligent Scalability
The Cisco MDS 9000 Family offers high port density, scaling from 4 to 528 ports per chassis. Because building a
large-scale storage network requires more than just high port density, Cisco has introduced innovative features that
make multilayer storage networks a reality. VSANs, Inter-VSAN Routing on every port, advanced traffic
management, hardware-enabled serviceability, and comprehensive security features make the Cisco MDS 9000
Family the platform of choice when you require high scalability and low TCO.
Virtual Machine Transparency
Server virtualization means that a SAN must concurrently support thousands of diverse, tiered applications, each
with unique performance requirements. These applications and the virtual machines they run on are not bounded by
physical servers and network ports. The Cisco MDS 9000 Family provides deterministic hardware performance and
a rich feature set that allows VMs to have the same SAN attributes as a physical server. On a per-VM basis, the
MDS 9000 Family NX-OS offers VSAN isolation, QoS policies, access control, performance monitoring, and data
protection to enable scalability and mobility of VMs.
Virtual SANs
Ideal for efficient, secure SAN consolidation, ANSI T11 compliant VSANs allow more efficient storage network
utilization by creating hardware-based isolated environments within a single physical SAN fabric or switch. Each
VSAN can be zoned as a typical SAN, maintaining its own fabric services for added scalability and resilience.
VSANs allow the cost of SAN infrastructure to be shared among more users, while ensuring absolute segregation of
traffic and retaining independent control of configuration on a VSAN-by-VSAN basis. Through unique industry-first
virtualization features, VSANs benefits can be extended to virtualized servers, providing the foundation for an end-toend virtualized data center.
Integrated SAN Routing
In another step toward deploying the most efficient, cost-effective, consolidated storage networks, the Cisco MDS
9000 Family 8-Gbps Fibre Channel switching modules support IVR functionality on every port for Fibre Channel. IVR
allows selective transfer of data traffic between specific initiators and targets on different VSANs while maintaining
isolation of control traffic within each VSAN, thereby maintaining fabric stability and availability. Integrated IVR
lowers TCO by eliminating the need for external routing appliances, greatly increasing routing scalability while
delivering line-rate performance, simplifying management, and nearly eliminating the challenges associated with
maintaining separate systems.
Integrated Mainframe Support
Cisco MDS 9000 Family 8-Gbps Fibre Channel switching modules are mainframe ready, with full support for IBM
System z FICON and Linux environments. The 8-Gbps Fibre Channel switching modules support transport of the
FICON protocol in both cascaded and noncascaded fabrics, as well as intermix of FICON and open systems Fibre
Channel Protocol (FCP) traffic on the same switch. VSANs simplify intermix of SAN resources between z/OS,
mainframe Linux, and open systems environments, allowing for increased utilization and simplified management of
SANs. VSAN-based intermix mode avoids the uncertainty and instability often associated with zoning-based intermix
techniques. VSANs also greatly reduce the probability that a misconfiguration or component failure in one VSAN
affects other VSANs. VSAN-based management access control enhances security by simplifying partitioning of SAN
management responsibilities between mainframe and open systems environments. FICON VSANs can be managed
using the integrated Cisco Fabric Manager; the Cisco command-line interface (CLI); or IBM CUP-enabled
management tools, including SA/390, Resource Measurement Facility (RMF), or Dynamic Channel Path
Management (DCM).

Advanced Traffic Management
Advanced traffic management capabilities integrated into every Cisco MDS 9000 Family 8-Gbps Fibre Channel
Switching Module simplify deployment and optimization of large-scale fabrics.
●
Virtual output queuing: Helps ensure line-rate performance on each port, independent of traffic pattern, by
eliminating head-of-line blocking.
●
Up to 4095 buffer-to-buffer credits: Can be assigned to any individual port for optimal bandwidth utilization
across distance.
●
PortChannels: Allow you to aggregate up to 16 physical ISLs into a single logical bundle, providing
optimized bandwidth utilization across all links. The bundle can be a mix of any port from any module in the
chassis, helping ensure that the bundle can remain active even in the event of a module failure.
●
Fabric shortest path first (FSPF)-based multipathing: Provides the intelligence to load balance across up
to 16 equal cost paths and dynamically reroute traffic in the event of a switch failure.
●
Quality of Service: Helps manage bandwidth and control latency to prioritize critical traffic, available on
every port.
●
Fibre Channel Congestion Control (FCC): Augments the Fibre Channel buffer to-buffer credit mechanism
for enhanced traffic management, through end-to-end feedback-based mechanism.
●
Port Bandwidth Reservation: Allows you to define dedicated bandwidth on a per-port basis.
Advanced Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Tools
The Cisco MDS 9000 Family integrates proactive diagnostics, tools to verify connectivity and route latency, and
mechanisms for capturing and analyzing traffic, helping simplify the management of large-scale storage networks.
Power-on self-test (POST) and online diagnostics provide proactive health monitoring. Integrated hardware
functionality enables diagnostic capabilities such as Fibre Channel Traceroute for detailing the exact path and timing
of flows, Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN), and Remote Switched Port Analyzer (RSPAN) to intelligently capture
network traffic. Captured Fibre Channel traffic can be analyzed with the embedded Cisco Fabric Analyzer.
Comprehensive port-based and flow-based statistics enable sophisticated performance analysis and service-level
agreement (SLA) accounting.
Comprehensive Solution for Robust Security
The Cisco MDS 9000 Family 8-Gbps Fibre Channel switching modules offer an extensive security framework to
protect highly sensitive data crossing today's enterprise networks. The 8-Gbps Fibre Channel switching modules
employ intelligent packet inspection at the port level, including the application of ACLs for hardware enforcement of
zones, VSANs, and advanced Port Security features. Extended zoning capabilities ensure that logical unit numbers
(LUNs) are accessible only by specific hosts (LUN zoning), limit SCSI read commands for a certain zone (read-only
zoning), and restrict broadcasts to selected zones (broadcast zones). VSANs provide mutual isolation among
devices connected to the same physical SAN, while IVR enables controlled sharing of resources between VSANs. 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. Fibre Channel Link Encryption, available on the Cisco MDS 9000 Family 8-Gbps
modules, addresses the growing security compliance requirements by allowing you to transparently encrypt ISL
traffic, providing an additional layer of protection for data within and between datacenters.
