For example, to delete the IPSec policy number 10:
switch:admin06> policy --delete ipsec 10
The policy has been successfully deleted.
To view IPSec information for an FCIP tunnel:

Options for enhancing tape write I/O performance

There are two options available for enhancing open systems SCSI tape write I/O performance.
FCIP fastwrite and tape pipelining.
FC fastwrite.
FCIP fastwrite and tape pipelining are implemented together. FC fastwrite is an FC-FC routing alternative
that disables the local Ethernet ports (ge0 and ge1), making it impossible to configure FCIP fastwrite and
tape pipelining and FC fastwrite on the same 400 Multi-protocol Router or FR4- 1 8i blade. See
Fastwrite
concepts" on page 396 for information about FC fastwrite.
FC fastwrite flows may be routed to another 400 Multi-protocol Router or FR4- 1 8i blade on the FC network.
This 400 Multi-protocol Router or FR4- 1 8i blade may have active FCIP tunnels over an IP network. FC
