The MPX200 FCIP feature can be configured as a standalone function or for use simultaneously with iSCSI. A license is required to enable the FCIP feature. All licenses are half-chassis based, enabling FCIP to be configured on one or both bays (slots) in a dual-blade chassis configuration. The following licenses are available for FCIP: • HP Storage Works MPX200 Half Chassis FCIP License-Includes the license to enable FCIP functionality in one of two bays (slots) in an MPX200 Chassis • HP Storage Works MPX200 Full Chassis FCIP License-Includes the license to enable FCIP functionality for both bays (slots) in an MPX200 Chassis. IMPORTANT: If you install a single blade and a half-chassis license initially, and then install a second blade, a second half-chassis license is required. Table 149 lists the features and requirements for the MPX200 Multifunction Router using FCIP. Table 149 MPX200 Multifunction Router using FCIP features and requirements Feature Fibre Channel switches for FCIP Requirements B-series switches-See Table 18 on page 96 and Table 19 on page 97. C-series switches-See Table 41 on page 138. Note: The MDS 9020 is not supported for use with the MPX200. IP network protocols TCP/IP IPv4, Ethernet 10 Mb/s, 100 Mb/s, 1,000 Mb/s Requires dedicated IP bandwidth. See Table 157 and Table 161.

MPX200 Multifunction Router FCIP configuration examples The MPX200 Multifunction Router supports iSCSI, data migration, and FCIP. The base functionality is iSCSI, with the option to add either data migration or FCIP (one other license-enabled function) for standalone or concurrent operation, data migration or FCIP. All FCIP configurations shown are supported with FCIP only or with simultaneous FCIP and iSCSI operations. For information about iSCSI configurations, see "MPX200 Multifunction Router with iSCSI" on page 360. For information about data migration, see "MPX200 Multifunction Router with offline data migration" on page 253. NOTE: The MPX200 does not support simultaneous FCIP and data migration operation. The MPX200 Multifunction Router supports the FCIP configurations shown in Figure 100, Figure 103, and Figure 104, in addition to all configurations shown for the IP Distance Gateway.
