FCoE Converged Network Switch features
The FCoE Converged Network Switch has the following features:
• Includes a system motherboard with a Freescale MPC8548 RISC CPU running at 1.3 GHz and
integrated peripherals, that provides high performance with low power consumption
• Contains an RJ-45 Ethernet management port and EZSwitch Setup, which supports switch IP address
discovery and configuration
• Integrates a USB port that provides storage for firmware updates, as well as supportsave
command output and configuration uploads and downloads
• Provides two hot-swappable, redundant power supply FRUs
• Provides three hot-swappable fan FRUs in an N+1 configuration to provide hardware-redundant
cooling
• Includes universal ports that self-configure as E_Ports, F_Ports, M_Ports, or FL_Ports
• Provides extensive diagnostics and system-monitoring capabilities for enhanced RAS
• Provides FCoE-to-FC latency of 1,670 ns
The FCoE Converged Network Switch has the following Ethernet capabilities:
• Contains 24 ports, 10-GbE CEE
• Provides low-latency, lossless, deterministic interconnect required for FCoE
• Provides FCoE support with FPMA discovery. Fabric OS also enables support for Priority-based
Flow Control (802.1Qbb)
• Includes DCBX - Capabilities Exchange and Enhanced Transmission Selection (802.1Qaz) to meet
the lossless and deterministic FCoE requirement
• Enables hardware-assisted MAC learning and aging
• Support for 32,768 MAC addresses and 4,096 VLANs
• Support for Layer 2 protocols STP/MSTP/RSTP (802.1q) and Link Aggregation (802.1ad)
• HP branded 10-Gb SFP+ (SR and LR) and active copper cables
• Provides CEE port to CEE port latency of 570 ns (same ASIC) and 1,050 ns (different ASIC)
