The Cisco MDS 9216i switch enables SAN extension features on the two fixed IP services ports only.
Note
The features enabled on these ports are identical to the features enabled by the SAN extension over IP
license on the 14/2-port Multiprotocol Services (MPS-14/2) module. If you install a module with IP
ports in the empty slot on the Cisco MDS 9216i, a separate SAN extension over IP license is required to
enable related features, such as FCIP, on the IP ports of the additional module.
