C-series MDS 9216i, 9222i, IPS-4, IPS-8, 14/2 Multiprotocol Services Modules, 18/4 Multiservice Modules The C-series MDS 9216i, MDS 9222i, IP Storage Services Modules (IPS-4, IPS-8), 14/2 Multiprotocol Services Modules, and 18/4 Multiservice Modules provide MDS FCIP and iSCSI functionality. The IPS-4, IPS-8, 14/2, and 18/4 modules integrate seamlessly into the C-series MDS 9000 switches and support the full range of features, including VSANs, security, and traffic management. You can use the C-series modules in the C-series 9500 and 9200 series switches. The IPS-4, IPS-8, 14/2, and 18/4 modules have four, eight, two, and four 1 Gb/s Ethernet ports, respectively. Table 153 lists the features and requirements for the C-series modules.

Storage systems Continuous Access EVA XP Continuous Access Notes: • Contact an HP storage representative for EVA and XP supported models. See "Heterogeneous server rules" on page 185 for specific operating system support. • Continuous Access EVA requires a load balance setting of src-dst-id on all C-series Fibre Channel switches (for the MDS 9020, the default setting is src-dst-id). XP Continuous Access supports a load balance setting of scr-dst-id or scr-dstox-id on all C-series Fibre Channel switches. FCIP-supported operating systems For Continuous Access EVA, see the HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array compatibility reference matrix at http://h18006.www1.hp.com/products/storage/software/ conaccesseva/index.html.
