Real world Examplehttp://www.zdnet.com/article/delta-system-outage-heres-what-went-wrong/

“While power was stabilized and restored quickly, after the malfunction "critical systems and network equipment didn't switch over to backups. Other systems did," said Delta COO Gil West. The systems that failed to switch over suffered from "instability", he continued, affecting the performance of a customer service system used to process check-ins, conduct boarding, and dispatch aircraft”

Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP) Design• Same Port Channeling and VSAN

Concepts as Fibre Channel • Port Channel multiple FCIP

interfaces to separate Ethernet switches/routers

• Each WAN link carries multiple FCIP tunnels - Multipathing

• Load balancing based on SrcID, DestID and OXID

FCIP Write/Tape Acceleration over Redundant WAN links


• Feature interoperability with Cisco MDS FCIP solutions• Compatible with previous Cisco MDS FCIP solutions
