Introduction to the 18 Ports Switch
The Cisco MDS 9222i (DS-C9222I-K9) is a high-performance, modular SAN switch that provides 18 ports of 4.24 Gbps Fibre Channel or Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP) connectivity. It is designed for enterprise-class data centers and storage networks, and can support a wide range of storage protocols and services, including FC, FCIP, FICON, iSCSI, and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE). The switch is highly scalable and can be configured with up to two line cards to support up to 36 ports of connectivity.
Additionally, the MDS 9222i supports advanced features such as SAN security, virtual SANs, and Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP) compression, which enables efficient long-distance data replication. The switch also supports advanced management capabilities, including an easy-to-use web-based GUI, SNMP, and CLI, which allows for easy configuration and monitoring. The MDS 9222i is a highly reliable and versatile SAN switch that can be used to create highly available and secure storage networks, and it is an ideal choice for organizations that require high-performance and reliable storage connectivity.
Network Management and Security Features
The DS-C9222I-K9 Cisco MDS 9222i 18-Ports 4.24Gbps Multiservice Modular SAN Switch offers a variety of network management and security features to help ensure the reliability and security of your storage network. Some of the key management and security features include:
- Advanced management capabilities: The switch supports an easy-to-use web-based GUI, SNMP, and CLI, which allows for easy configuration and monitoring.
- SAN security: The switch supports advanced security features such as FC SAN zoning, Fibre Channel security protocols (FC-SP), and Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP) security.
- Virtual SANs (VSANs): The switch supports the creation of multiple virtual SANs, which allows for the segmentation of the SAN into multiple isolated domains for increased security and manageability.
- Access control lists (ACLs): The switch supports the use of ACLs to restrict access to specific SAN resources based on user or device identity.
- Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP) compression: The switch supports FCIP compression, which enables efficient long-distance data replication, while also reducing the amount of bandwidth required for replication.
- FCoE support: The switch supports FCoE, which enables the use of a single network infrastructure for both storage and data traffic.
- FCIP Tunneling: The switch supports FCIP Tunneling, which enables the creation of a secure, encrypted tunnel between two FCIP devices, allowing for the secure replication of data over long distances.
Power Options and Redundancy
The DS-C9222I-K9 Cisco MDS 9222i 18-Ports 4.24Gbps Multiservice Modular SAN Switch offers several options for power and redundancy to ensure continuous operation and high availability in your storage network. Some of the key power and redundancy features include:
- Dual power supplies: The switch has two internal power supplies that can be configured in a redundant mode to ensure continuous operation in the event of a power supply failure.
- Hot-swappable power supplies: The power supplies can be easily removed and replaced without disrupting the operation of the switch.
- Redundant cooling: The switch has redundant cooling fans that can be configured in a redundant mode to ensure continuous operation in the event of a fan failure.
- Hot-swappable fans: The cooling fans can be easily removed and replaced without disrupting the operation of the switch.
- Dual supervisor engines: The switch has two supervisor engines that can be configured in a redundant mode to ensure continuous operation in the event of a supervisor engine failure.
- Non-stop forwarding (NSF) and non-stop routing (NSR): The switch supports NSF and NSR, which allows the switch to continue forwarding traffic even in the event of a supervisor engine failure.
