Solution to emerging challenges

Virtualize

Converge

Consolidate

Consolidate   Multiple low bandwidth links to

high bandwidth link •  Reduce # of ports •  Reduce # of cables •  Improve efficiency

Converge

  Multiple traffic types using single infrastructure

  Provide the foundation for network virtualization

  Further reduce ports & cables

Virtualize

  Dynamically create and delete virtual ports

  Dynamically provision bandwidth

  Track and manage adherence to SLAs & QoS

Enabling Technologies

Lossless 10 Gigabit Ethernet

Physical Topology innovations - Direct Attach Twin-Ax cabling - TOR Switch Architecture

Fibre Channel over Ethernet

Network Convergence

  FCoE Specification

–  Adopted by INCITS T11 FC-BB-5 in June 2007; technical work completed, in public review with T11 Letter Ballot

–  Frame format agreed upon by T11 in August 2007 –  Broad industry support and participation

Fibre Channel over Ethernet Standard

Page 10: Webcast: Reduce Costs, Improve Agility with Convergenomics

10 Emulex Confidential

FCoE Fundamentals

  Lossless Ethernet required –  Priority Flow Control or Pause based

  FCoE is not a replacement for FCIP –  FCIP is for inter-switch links beyond the Data Center –  FCoE is for the Data Center

  Fibre Channel services operate identically on FCoE fabrics and native Fibre Channel fabrics

  FCoE supports all Fibre Channel advanced features (NPIV, security, etc.) transparently

  FCoE will not require changes to Fibre Channel software

FCoE Maintains Full Fibre Channel Compatibility
