Summary
Introduction
The Huawei NX220 8G FC switch module (short for NX220) is a high-performance, nonblocking 16-port, 8 Gbit/s Fibre Channel (FC) switch designed for the Huawei Enterprise E6000 blade server.
The NX220 provides 10 internal ports for connecting to each of the 10 server blades, and six external SFP+ ports for connecting to storage area networks (SANs) or storage arrays. A maximum of four NX220 can be inserted in a single Huawei E6000 blade server chassis.
Functions and Features
The NX220 supports the following features and functionality:
- Ten internal ports connect to the Huawei E6000 blade server midplane.
- Six external ports connect to SANs or storage arrays.
- All external ports support rates of 2, 4, and 8 Gbit/s speeds that are auto-negotiated.
- Indicators identify FC port locations, and activity and link port indicators identify port performance.
- Payload supports a maximum frame length of 2112 bits.
- Brocade-branded hot-swappable 8 Gbit/s SFP+ transceivers are supported, providing short wavelength (SWL) support.
- One RJ-45 serial port is provided for debugging and management.
- The FC ports connect to server blades through the midplane.
- Multiple port types are supported.
- N_Port ID Virtualization (NPIV), which allows multiple N_Port IDs to share a single physical N_Port, is supported.
- One internal Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) and one Fast Ethernet (FE) connection to the MM620 of the Huawei E6000 blade server is provided for control and status collection.
- Connections using secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS), SSH, Transport Layer Security (TLS), Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), Internet Protocol Security (IPsec), Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) are supported.
- Zoning based on the WWN and physical ports is supported.
- Long-distance transmissions are supported (up to 10 km) in LE mode. (An Extended Fabric license is required for long-distance support.)
