  • Page 47: Cascading Switches

    ™ SAN S IXEL PEED TORAGE WITCH ODEL HAPTER WITCH ANAGEMENT ’ UIDE Cascading Switches When multiple switches are connected, the connecting links between the switches are referred to as "cascades". There are two distinct cascade configurations to consider when configuring networks for optimal performance and connectivity: string cascades and tree cascades.

  • Page 48: Automatic Trunking

    ™ SAN S IXEL PEED TORAGE WITCH ODEL HAPTER WITCH ANAGEMENT ’ UIDE Automatic Trunking Multiple links between switches are called “trunks”. Trunks provide higher bandwidth across cascaded switches for systems incorporating multiple initiators. Each trunk can improve system throughput and provide “failover” capability. A maximum of 4 trunks between each switch is supported.

  • Page 49: Load Balancing

    ™ SAN S IXEL PEED TORAGE WITCH ODEL HAPTER WITCH ANAGEMENT ’ UIDE Load Balancing Load balancing builds on the Automatic Trunking functionality by specifying the path that the data uses to flow between multiple switches. Users can manage the switch’s aggregate bandwidth by manually distributing traffic across multiple cascade ports as shown below.
  • Page 50 The concept of "fairness" is based on the principle of ensuring fair device access and communication across all devices in a storage system. The switch incorporates fairness and prioritization through Vixel’s InSpeed technology and Automatic Trunking and Load Balancing functionality. In cooperation with each other, these features ensure even and equal access through multiple links fairly–effectively multiplying bandwidth.
