10Gb Ethernet Converged Data Center Maturation of 10 Gigabit Ethernet
– Single network simplifies mobility for virtualization/cloud deployments
10 Gigabit Ethernet simplifies infrastructure – Reduces the number of cables and server adapters – Lowers capital expenditures and administrative costs – Reduces server power and cooling costs – Blade servers and server virtualization drive consolidated bandwidth
FCoE and iSCSI both leverage this inflection point

IP Network
iSCSI Introduction Transport storage (SCSI) over standard Ethernet
– Reliability through TCP
More flexible than FC due to IP routing – Effectively reaches lower-tier servers than FC
Good performance iSCSI has thrived
– Especially where server, storage, and network admins are the person
– Example: IaaS Clouds ▪ E.g., OpenStack
Link
IP
TCP

iSCSI Introduction (continued) Standardized in 2004: IETF RFC 3720
– Stable: No major changes since 2004 – NEW: Consolidated spec (RFC 7143), minor updates (RFC 7144)
▪ Backwards-compatible with existing implementations
iSCSI Session: One Initiator and one Target – Multiple TCP connections allowed in a session
Important iSCSI additions to SCSI – Immediate and unsolicited data to avoid round trip – Login phase for connection setup – Explicit logout for clean teardown

FCoE: Another Option for FC
FC: large and well managed installed base – Leverage FC expertise / investment – Other convergence options not incremental for existing FC
Data Center solution for I/O consolidation
Leverage Ethernet infrastructure and skill set
FCoE allows an Ethernet-based SAN to be introduced into an FC-based Data Center
without breaking existing administrative tools and workflows

FCoE Frames FC frames encapsulated in Layer 2 Ethernet frames
– No TCP, Lossless Ethernet (DCB) required – No IP routing
1:1 frame encapsulation – FC frame never segmented across multiple Ethernet frames
Requires at least Mini Jumbo (2.5k) Ethernet frames – Max FC payload size: 2180 bytes – Max FCoE frame size: 2240 bytes

FCoE Initialization
• Native FC link: Optical fiber has 2 endpoints (simple) – Discovery: Who’s at the other end? – Liveness: Is the other end still there?
• FCoE virtual link: Ethernet LAN or VLAN, 3+ endpoints possible – Discovery: Choice of FCoE switches – Liveness: FCoE virtual link may span multiple Ethernet links
• Single link liveness check isn’t enough, where’s the problem?
• FCoE configuration: Do mini jumbo (or larger) frames work? • FIP: FCoE Initialization Protocol
– Discover endpoints, create and initialize virtual link with FCoE switch – Mini jumbo frame support: Large frame is part of discovery – Periodic LKA (Link Keep Alive) messages after initialization
Ethernet is more than a cable

FCoE Switch Discovery Step 1: FIP Solicitation
FCoE/FC Switches
DCB Ethernet FC SAN
Select FCoE VLAN first (pre-config or FIP) Multicast Solicitation: Server can discover multiple switches Solicitation identifies Server (FC WWN for FCoE CNA)
– CNA = Converged Network Adapter (FCoE analog of HBA) – Switch chooses servers to respond to (default: respond to all)
Solicitation
Server

FCoE Switch Discovery Step 2: FIP Advertisement
FCoE/FC Switches
DCB Ethernet FC SAN
Advertisement identifies switch
– Multiple switches may respond, advertisement includes priority – Server chooses FCoE switch by priority (smallest number wins)
Advertisement padded to max FC frame size: Test mini jumbo frames
Advertisement
Advertisement Priority = 1
Priority = 25
Server

FIP Switch Discovery Step 3: FIP-based FC Login
FCoE/FC Switches
DCB Ethernet FC SAN
FIP encapsulated FC Login – Server sends FC Fabric Login (FLOGI) to selected switch – Switch responds with FC FLOGI ACC (accept) with assigned FCID
All further traffic is standard FC frames (FCoE encapsulated)
Priority = 25

FCoE and Ethernet Standards
Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)
– Developed by INCITS T11 Fibre Channel (FC) Interfaces Technical Committee
– Enables FC traffic over Ethernet – FC-BB-5 standard: June 2009 – FC-BB-6 expands solution
Data Center Bridging (DCB) Ethernet
• Developed by IEEE Data Center Bridging (DCB) Task Group
• Drops frames as rarely as FC • Commonly referred to as
Lossless Ethernet • DCB: Required for FCoE • DCB: Enhancement for iSCSI
Two complementary standards
Participants: Brocade, Cisco, EMC, Emulex, HP, IBM, Intel, QLogic, others
20 © Copyright 2014 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. © Copyright 2014 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved.
FC-BB-6 – New FCoE features Direct connection of servers to storage
– PT2PT [point to point]: Single cable – VN2VN [VN_Port to VN_Port]: Single Ethernet LAN or VLAN
Better support for FC fabric scaling (switch count) – Distribute logical FC fabric switch functionality – Enables every DCB Ethernet switch to participate in FCoE

Lossless Ethernet (DCB) IEEE 802.1 Data Center Bridging (DCB)
Link level enhancements: 1. Enhanced Transmission Selection (ETS) 2. Priority Flow Control (PFC) 3. Data Center Bridging Exchange Protocol (DCBX)
DCB: network portion that must be lossless – Generally limited to data center distances per link – Can use long-distance optics, but uncommon in practice
DCB Ethernet provides the Lossless Infrastructure that enables FCoE. DCB also improves iSCSI.
22 © Copyright 2014 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. © Copyright 2014 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved.
Enhanced Transmission Selection
• Management framework for link bandwidth
• Priority configuration and bandwidth reservation – HPC & storage traffic:
higher priority, reserved bandwidth
• Low latency for high priority traffic
– Unused bandwidth available to other traffic

PAUSE and Priority Flow Control • PAUSE can produce lossless Ethernet behavior
– Original 802.3x PAUSE affects all traffic: rarely implemented
• New PAUSE: Priority Flow Control (PFC) – Pause per priority level – No effect on other traffic – Creates lossless virtual lanes
• Per priority flow control – Enable/disable per priority – Only for traffic that needs it

Data Center Bridging Capability eXchange
• Ethernet Link configuration (single link)
– Extends Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)
• Reliably enables lossless behavior (DCB) – e.g., exchange Ethernet priority values for FCoE and FIP
• FCoE virtual links should not be instantiated without DCBX

Ethernet Spanning Trees
Reminder: FCoE is Ethernet only, no IP routing – Ethernet (layer 2) is bridged, not routed
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP): Prevents (deadly) loops – Elects a Root Switch, disables redundant paths
Causes problems in large layer 2 networks (for both FCoE and iSCSI) – No network multipathing – Inefficient link utilization

Ethernet Multipathing: SPBM and TRILL SPBM = Shortest Path Bridging-MAC [IEEE 802.1aq]
TRILL = Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links [IETF RFC 6325]
Layer 2 routing for Ethernet switches – Encapsulate Ethernet traffic, use IS-IS routing protocol – Block Spanning Tree Protocol
Transparent to NICs

Ethernet Cabling Choices
Type / Connector Cable 1Gb 10Gb 40/100Gb
Copper (10GBase-T) / RJ-45
Cat6 or Cat6a Most existing cabling (lots of Cat 5e)
Some products on market, but not for FCoE yet. For 10Gb Ethernet: Cat6 55m Cat6a 100m
Not supported (insufficient bandwidth)
Optical (multimode) / LC
OM2 (orange) OM3 (aqua) OM4 (aqua)
Rare for Ethernet Standard for FC
Most backbone deployments are optical. OM2 82m OM3 300m OM4 380m
Primarily optical (QSFP+ connector) OM3 100m OM4 125m
Copper / SFP+DA (direct attach)
Twinax N/A Low power 5-10m distance (Rack solution)
Different short-distance option (QSFP+)

iSCSI Deployment • 10 Gb iSCSI solutions
– Traditional Ethernet (recover from dropped packets using TCP) or
– Lossless Ethernet (DCB) environment (TCP still used)
• iSCSI: natively routable (IP) – Can use VLAN(s) to isolate
traffic
• iSCSI: smaller scale solutions – Larger SANs: usually FC
(e.g., for robustness, management)
Ethernet iSCSI SAN
37 © Copyright 2014 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. © Copyright 2014 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved.
Some iSCSI Best Practices
• Use a separate VLAN for iSCSI – Direct visibility and control of iSCSI traffic
• Avoid mixing 1Gb/sec and 10Gb/sec Ethernet – Congestion can occur where speed changes
• DCB (lossless) Ethernet helps iSCSI, but not a panacea – E.g., Still shouldn’t mix 1Gb/sec and 10Gb/sec Ethernet
