Page 25: Total Number Of Initiators
(a total of eight). Use of iSNS The MPX200 presents one iSCSI target for each virtual port group (VPG) (a total of four). Each initiator, therefore, discovers four times the number of FC targets. HP recommends that you use iSNS to present to the initiator only the required iSCSI targets.
Page 26: 10-Gbe Initiators
MPIO for iSCSI provides a mechanism to allocate FC bandwidth to each function. 10-GbE initiators HP recommends that you map servers with 10-GbE NICs for login to the 10-GbE ports on the MPX200. CHAP security You can configure the Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) on the MPX200. CHAP is a security protocol that supports the bidirectional (mutual) authentication option and the one-way (target) authentication option.
Page 27: Installing The Mpx200
This chapter describes how to rack mount the MPX200. WARNING! Mount the MPX200 in the rack so that the weight is evenly distributed. An unevenly loaded rack can become unstable, possibly resulting in equipment damage or personal injury. This product is supplied with a 3 wire cable and plug for the user's safety. Use this power cable in conjunction with a properly grounded outlet to avoid electrical shock.

Attach the two chassis rails to the MPX200 chassis using three 10-32 x 1/4 in. screws for each rail. Make sure that the end with the flange is facing the rear of the chassis (Figure 12). The MPX200 has multiple mounting holes to allow for adjustable setback. Secure the chassis rails in the desired position if additional room is needed.

Page 35: Managing The Mpx200 Using Hp Command View Eva
Because the MPX200 can be a fabric-connected device, it is important to understand the zoning requirements. Open zoning When using an open zone configuration, each FC port on each MPX200 must be connected to a separate fabric (see Figure 18 on page 36).
Page 36: Fibre Channel Switch-Based Zoning
Figure 18 Open zone configuration Fibre Channel switch-based zoning Each FC port on the MPX200 uses N_Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) to create a total of four unique, virtual world wide node names (WWNNs) per physical FC port. To create proper zoning, you must understand the use of VPGs.
Page 37: Hp Command View Eva Discovery
Once the management port IP address is set and the router FC ports are visible to the EVA, you can perform the MPX200 discovery. You discover the MPX200 iSCSI controllers using the Discover iSCSI Devices button or the Add iSCSI Device button (see Figure 20).
Page 38: Host Properties
HP recommends that you set a static IP address on the management port to ensure connectivity. After the discovery is complete, the MPX200s appear in the iSCSI Devices folder as iSCSI Controller 01 and iSCSI Controller 02. The four iSCSI MPX200 hosts appear in the Hosts folder (see Figure 21).
Page 39: Setting Up The Iscsi Ip Ports
Each iSCSI IP port must have an IP address—IPv4, IPv6, or both. Set the IP address on the IP Ports tab on the iSCSI Controller Properties page (see Figure 23). NOTE: A target portal is created for each IP address that you set. MPX200 Multifunction Router User Guide...

Page 53: Mpx200 Iscsi Configuration Rules And Guidelines
This chapter describes the iSCSI configuration rules and guidelines for the MPX200. iSCSI rules and supported maximums The MPX200 chassis can be configured with one or two blades. Dual-blade configurations provide for high availability with failover between blades, and are supported as redundant pairs only.
Page 54: Eva Storage System Rules And Guidelines
Each EVA controller host port can connect to a maximum of two MPX200 Fibre Channel ports. • A maximum of one MPX200 chassis (two blades) can be zoned with up to four EVA storage systems. • An EVA storage system can present LUNs to iSCSI initiators and Fibre Channel hosts concurrently.
Page 55: Eva Storage System Software
CLI support to enter replication commands from iSCSI hosts Features not supported for iSCSI hosts LUNs that are presented to iSCSI hosts through the MPX200, and that require a host agent on the iSCSI initiator, do not support advanced replication features because there are no iSCSI replication host agents available.
Page 56: Xp Storage System Rules And Guidelines
Each XP storage system can connect to a maximum of one MPX200 chassis (two blades). • A maximum of one MPX200 chassis (two blades) can be zoned with up to four XP storage systems. • XP and EVA storage systems can connect to the same MPX200, The total allowable number of storage systems is four per MPX200 chassis.

IP network. Used in conjunction with the EVA and XP storage system families and the HP Continuous Access software, the MPX200 enables long-distance remote replication for disaster tolerance. A base FCIP configuration consists of a minimum of two MPX200 blades, one for the local site and one for the remote site.
Page 118: Redundant Fcip Network Structure Example
The redundant configuration can be either a single HP StorageWorks MPX200 Multifunction Router 1 GbE Base Chassis with an HP StorageWorks MPX200 Router 1 GbE Upgrade Blade, or an HP StorageWorks MPX200 Multifunction Router 10 1 GbE Base Chassis with an HP StorageWorks MPX200 Router 10 1 GbE Upgrade Blade.
Page 119: Single Fabric Per Blade
For existing iSCSI configurations, there are two configuration cases to consider: one with a single FC fabric (see Figure 79) connected to an MPX200 blade and one with dual FC fabrics (see Figure connected to an MPX200 blade. In the single FC fabric case (see...
Page 120: Fcip And Iscsi Performance
In the dual FC fabric case, the impact is higher because after adding an FCIP Route there is only one remaining FC port available for iSCSI. Therefore, only the targets from one fabric or the other will be available to iSCSI initiators connected to that MPX200 blade; access to targets on the other fabric are through another MPX200 blade.

Storage system rules and guidelines, page 130. • For MPX200 IP data—Local and remote pairs are supported for up to 100 ms of IP network delay one-way, or 200 ms round-trip for HP Continuous Access. HP requires dedicated IP bandwidth (see Table 17).
Page 132: Distance
Bandwidth is a measure of the volume of data that can be transmitted at a given transmission rate. WAN data rates typically range from 1.5 Mb/s (T1) to 1 Gb/s. The proper MPX200 bandwidth setting is determined based on the bandwidth that is available for each FCIP route, irrespective of the total bandwidth and physical speed of the link.
Page 133: Compression
Jumbo frames are not supported for use with HP Continuous Access EVA. Compression The MPX200 integrates a software compression option. This option can be set to disable, enable, or auto. When set to auto, the MPX200 continually assesses data compressibility and automatically enables or disables compression based on data compressibility.
Page 134: Modifying The Window Size And Scaling Factor
Modifying the window size and scaling factor The MPX200 window size can be set to a maximum of 32 KB. The scaling factor is used as a multiplier to increase the window size above 32 KB.
