Configuring iFCP Connections
To configure an iFCP connection, configure a TCP port (13-16) as
iFCP, as described in

on page 4-4. A
pair of SAN Routers connects two mSANs. Each mSAN is identified
by a unique mSAN ID and each has its own mSNS. Only configure a
mSAN ID when iFCP is being used. Otherwise, there is only a single
mSAN.

following options from the
Configuration

parameters. refer to
