FL_Port in the destination device looplet acts on behalf of the source device, and the fabric provides the transport service. Sample Configurations The following examples illustrate possible configurations of one or two switches to form a QuickLoop. For the details of setting these sample configurations using Telnet commands, refer to "Sample Telnet Commands" on page 26. The QuickLoop configuration examples are: Configuration 1 A simple configuration in which a QuickLoop-enabled switch is used as a hub emulator or concentrator. Configuration 2 A dual-switch configuration in which two switches are cascaded by a local fiber connection to make up a QuickLoop. Configuration 3 A dual-switch configuration in which two switches up to 10 km apart are connected to make up a QuickLoop. In each of these examples, the dotted line represents the logical QuickLoop or the ports that form the QuickLoop. A QuickLoop zone is a subset of a QuickLoop. For examples that illustrate using QuickLoop zones, see the Zoning User's Guide. Using QuickLoop 23

Using QuickLoop
23
FL_Port in the destination device looplet acts on behalf of the source
device, and the fabric provides the transport service.
Sample Configurations
The following examples illustrate possible configurations of one or two
switches to form a QuickLoop. For the details of setting these sample
configurations using Telnet commands, refer to
“Sample Telnet
Commands”
on
page 26
.
The QuickLoop configuration examples are:
Configuration 1
A simple configuration in which a QuickLoop-enabled switch is used as
a hub emulator or concentrator.
Configuration 2
A dual-switch configuration in which two switches are cascaded by a
local fiber connection to make up a QuickLoop.
Configuration 3
A dual-switch configuration in which two switches up to 10 km apart
are connected to make up a QuickLoop.
In each of these examples, the dotted line represents the logical QuickLoop
or the ports that form the QuickLoop.
A QuickLoop zone is a subset of a QuickLoop. For examples that illustrate
using QuickLoop zones, see the
Zoning User’s Guide
