15 © 2007 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. Internet Protocol Storage Area Networks (IP SAN) - 15 Fibre Channel over IP - FCIP  Encapsulates FC frames in IP packets  Creates virtual FC links that connect devices and fabric elements  Includes security, data integrity, congestion and performance specifications IP Datagram IP Header TCP Header FCIP Header IP Payload Fibre Channel Frame SOF FC Header CRC EOF SCSI Data FCIP Encapsulation

16 © 2007 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. Internet Protocol Storage Area Networks (IP SAN) - 16 FCIP Benefits  FCIP – Best of both technologies – Support for existing applications – Cost effective – Multi-point networking Fibre Channel Widely available Low latency High reliability Off-the-shelf solutions Mature standards IP Widely available Accepted technology Trained user base Affordable Mature standards

17 © 2007 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. Internet Protocol Storage Area Networks (IP SAN) - 17 Internet Fibre Channel Protocol - iFCP  Gateway-to-gateway protocol – IP switches & routers replace FC switches – Transparent to FC drivers  FC transport uses TCP connections – Point-to-multipoint networking possible IP Header TCP Header iFCP Header IP Payload Fibre Channel Frame SOF FC Header CRC EOF SCSI Data iFCP Address Translation & Encapsulation
