  • Page 12: Quickloop Basics

    Introducing QuickLoop QuickLoop Basics QuickLoop is a unique Fibre Channel topology that combines arbitrated loop and fabric topologies. An arbitrated loop supports communication between devices that are not fabric-aware. Such devices are called private devices, and arbitrated loops are sometimes called private loops. QuickLoop allows a SAN Switch 8-EL/16-EL to emulate a hub environment, while offering the additional benefit of connectivity to a fabric.

  • Page 13: Combining Quickloop And Zoning

    Introducing QuickLoop Individual ports within a switch may be set by configuration commands to one of the above two modes offering a mixed mode configuration. The switch automatically determines and sets the appropriate mode, based on factory defaults and configurations currently in effect. Combining QuickLoop and Zoning QuickLoop can be used in conjunction with Zoning.

    Using Quick Loop A switch can be configured to operate in any of the following modes: QuickLoop mode—All ports on the switch, except for E_Ports or loopback ports, are enabled for QuickLoop and participate in a logical Private Loop Direct Attach (PLDA). Upon request, this can be set as the manufacturing default.

  • Page 21: Quickloop Topology

    Using Quick Loop To use a QuickLoop telnet command, log into the relevant switch with administrative privileges, enter the command along with any required operands, and press Enter. For a description of all the telnet commands provided for managing QuickLoop, refer to the Fabric Operating System Reference Guide.

  • Page 22: Quickloop Implementation

    Using Quick Loop Multiple devices communicate simultaneously between at least 4 separate switch ports, at full bandwidth within multiple looplets located in the same QuickLoop. These simultaneous conversations cannot involve overlapping looplets. If a looplet error is detected, QuickLoop automatically takes that looplet out of service.

    Using Quick Loop F_Port—A fabric port that is not in loop mode. Able to transmit under fabric protocol, and interface over links. N_Ports on equipment connect to F_Ports on switches. FL_Port—A fabric port on a switch that is in loop mode. Used to connect loop capable NL_Ports to the switch in a loop configuration.

  • Page 34: How Fabric Assist Mode Works

    Using QuickLoop Fabric Assist Mode How Fabric Assist Mode Works There are significant implications about the implementation of Fabric Assist zones, especially considerations of LIPs, and the interaction with QuickLoop zones. The standard QuickLoop implementation imposes the following limitations: A QuickLoop is confined to at most two switches in a fabric. There can only be 29 private hosts supported in a QuickLoop.

  • Page 35: Lip Propagation And Private Targets

    Using QuickLoop Fabric Assist Mode LIP Propagation and Private Targets LIPs of the private host loop are not propagated back to the loop’s Fabric Assist targets. A Registered State Change Notification (RSCN) will be generated, and thus public targets that have registered for SCN will be notified of any configuration changes.

  • Page 36: Preferred Phantom Al_Pa Assignment

    Using QuickLoop Fabric Assist Mode Preferred Phantom AL_PA Assignment When “cfg” is enabled, phantoms for all online zoned targets are created on the private host’s loop and is re-LIPed so that it can see any newly added phantoms. As additional targets join the fabric, within the Fabric Assist zone (fazone), a phantom is created on the private host’s loop, which is triggered off the Registered State Change Notification (RSCN).
  • Page 37 Using QuickLoop Fabric Assist Mode Preferred AL_PAs are identified by using additional syntax, such as: fazoneCreate “fazone_2”, “H{1,4}; 1,1[0x88]; 1,5; 1,12[0xCC]; 50:05:07:61:00:5b:50[0x08]; 50:05:07:61:00:5b:52; 50:05:07:61:00:5b:54” Preferred AL_PAs are added, within square brackets [ ], to the definition of a domain, port, or WWN target.
