Fibre Channel over EthernetTechnology Components Bill Fields Director of Systems Engineering Emulex
Fibre Channel Over Ethernet (FCoE) Ethernet is a “best-effort” network ,[object Object]
Packets may be delivered out of order
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) used to reassemble packets in correct orderData Center Bridging (aka “lossless Ethernet”) ,[object Object]
Provides reliability and low latency required for FCoE support,[object Object]
Fibre Channel over Ethernet Relies on DCB to provide lossless transmissions with low latency Encapsulates complete Fibre Channel frames within an Ethernet frame FCoE Traffic FCS EthernetLink Other NetworkingTraffic Data

How Do You Get There? J Metz, Ph.D Product Manager, FCoE Cisco Systems
Step-by-Step Different ways of implementing FCoE Our example: “zipping up the Data Center” Access through Aggregation
Today Ethernet DCB Fibre Channel FCoE only EthernetLAN/WAN EthernetLAN/WAN Ethernet NIC FC HBA FC SAN FC SAN Today IP and FC Networks are Doubling the Cost of Networking
Morph Server Edge of Fabric A Ethernet DCB Fibre Channel FCoE only EthernetLAN/WAN EthernetLAN/WAN Ethernet NIC CNA FC HBA FC SAN FC SAN Convert Fabric A to CNAs and Unified Fabric Access Layer
Morph Server Edge of Fabric B Ethernet DCB Fibre Channel FCoE only EthernetLAN/WAN EthernetLAN/WAN CNA Ethernet NIC CNA FC HBA FC SAN FC SAN Convert Fabric B to CNAs and Unified Fabric Access Layer
Virtualization Smoothes Migration FCoE can be “bolt-on”, or you can upgrade non-disruptively with vMotion vMotion shifts resources allowing servers to maintain connectivity Reduces downtime risk
Virtualization Smooths Migration Ethernet DCB Fibre Channel FCoE only DCB TOR(Top of Rack) Switch Ethernet NIC (iSCSI) VMotion CNA VMotion FC HBA
Beyond the Access Layer Creating flexibility and agility throughout Can you borrow Ethernet bandwidth to give to Fibre Channel? With FCoE, you can!

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Network Convergence Lowers Costs by reducingTotal HW Costs by 28%Total Power & Cooling by 42%Total Cables Cost by 80%Ethernet Economies of Scale are hitting 10GbE Target price/port as a LOMTarget price/NIC portTarget price/Switch portCNAs will provide a pay-as-as you-go modelInitial costs will be the same as 10GbE NICsiSCSI can be added on demandFCoE can be added on demand
  2. This gets even better as LOM evolves to a converged LOM
  3. From a power perspective, we consolidate NIC, iSCSI and FC with a single chip
  4. There are different ways to implement FCoE. You can start from the servers and move back to the storage, or you can move from the storage and approach the servers. FCoE is a flexible “bolt-on” technology that means you can non-disruptively add equipment to the existing Data CenterIn our example, our data center is not drawn to scale. 
  5. Today customers are paying the price for separate IP and FC networks.
  6. Today customers are paying the price for separate IP and FC networks.
  7. Today customers are paying the price for separate IP and FC networks.
  8. FCoE can be a “bolt-on” technology, which means that you don’t have to rip and replace.However, if you wish to upgrade your current environment, virtualization can help. By using virtualization methods such as vMotion, you can maintain server connections across
  9. The core is designed to be stable, reliable, and fully saturated. When you have two separate networks – Fibre Channel and Ethernet, for instance – with different hardware, different ports that can only be used for one or the other, you have an issue when it comes to increasing capacity. Let’s say you have a saturated fibre channel pipe, but your ethernet is only being used at half capacity? Traditionally, you cannot simply ‘borrow’ your Ethernet traffic to give to your FC needs. With FCoE, however, you can!
  10. Simplify next layer of cabling, reducing total number of cables and ports consumed. The splitting of storage traffic and LAN traffic now takes place at the Aggregation layer, typically a Nexus 7000 in a medium to large data center.
