FCSs in a VSAN Environment
Significance of FCS
The significance of FCSs are as follows:
•
Network Management
–
N port management application can query and obtain information about the fabric elements.
–
SNMP Manager--A SNMP Manager can use the FCS management information base (MIB) to
start discovery and obtain information about the fabric topology.
•
FCSs supports TE and TL ports in addition to the standard F and E ports.
•
FCS can maintain a group of modes with a logical name and management address when a platform
registers with it. FCSs maintain a backup of all registrations in secondary storage and updates it with
every change. When a restart or switchover happens, FCSs retrieve the secondary storage
information, and rebuild its database.
•
The SNMP manager can query FCSs for all the IEs, ports, and platforms in the fabric.
