The following illustrations are examples of FC/SCSI Tape Pipelining
(Device Extension) network configurations. Depending upon what
your network configuration consists of, each configuration has
different requirements for Fibre Channel switch zoning, static Edge
LUN mapping, and source WWN filtering. Each illustration below
shows the associated parameters for Fibre Channel switch zoning,
static Edge LUN mapping, and source WWN filtering for its specific
example.
It may be helpful to read through the "Dynamic Target LUN
Discovery and LUN Mapping" section in Chapter 10 for an
understanding of the Edge's functionality before attempting to
configure your network.
Figure 8-1 provides an example of a simple uni-directional
configuration using FC/SCSI Tape Pipelining. Fibre Channel switch
zoning and static Edge LUN mapping are not required for this
configuration.

Uni-directional FC/SCSI Tape Pipelining - No Zoning
Figure 9-1
In the configuration above (Figure 8-1), Edge node 10 automatically
maps all of the devices attached to Edge node 20, into its LUN map.
Server A is now able to access those devices through Edge node 10's
LUN map.
