• Cisco SAN Health: A diagnostic tool that helps you quickly identify and troubleshoot issues in your storage network.
• Performance monitoring: The switch supports real-time monitoring of various performance metrics, such as port utilization, error rates, and FCIP compression statistics.
• Event notifications: The switch can send event notifications via SNMP, syslog, or email to alert you of potential issues or changes in your storage network.
• Scripting and automation: The switch supports the use of CLI scripts and XML API for automating repetitive tasks and integrating with other management tools.
• Advanced troubleshooting: The switch supports advanced troubleshooting features such as Port Analyzer, Port Mirroring, and SPAN ports, which allow you to capture and analyze network traffic for troubleshooting purposes.
• FC-SP and FCIP compression: The switch supports FC-SP and FCIP compression, which enables efficient long-distance data replication, while also reducing the amount of bandwidth required for replication.

Scalable and High-Performance

The DS-C9222I-K9 Cisco MDS 9222i 18-Ports 4.24Gbps Multiservice Modular SAN Switch is designed to be scalable and high-performance, to accommodate the growing demands of your storage network. Some of the key scalable and high-performance features include:

• High-speed ports: The switch supports 18 ports of 4.24 Gbps full-duplex Fibre Channel, which provides high-speed connectivity to storage devices and servers.
• Fabric-based architecture: The switch uses a fabric-based architecture that allows it to scale to thousands of ports and support up to 2 million N-port IDs.
• SAN extension: The switch supports SAN extension over FCIP and FC-SP, which allows you to connect multiple SANs over long distances, while also reducing the amount of bandwidth required for replication.
• Virtual SANs (VSANs): The switch supports VSANs, which allows you to segment your SAN into multiple virtual SANs to improve security and manageability.
• Quality of Service (QoS): The switch supports QoS, which allows you to prioritize and shape traffic to ensure that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth.
• Storage Area Network (SAN) Port Channel: The switch supports SAN Port Channel, which allows you to bundle multiple physical ports together to create a logical channel that provides increased bandwidth and redundancy.
• NPV and NPIV: The switch supports NPV and NPIV, which allows multiple servers to share a single FC port and access multiple storage devices.
