| N_Port communication steps | N_Port logs into its attached F_Port - FLOGI or fabric login |
| FLOGI | Fabric Login - pWWN (hardware-HBA) and get a FCID (logical-assigned) - this is how stuff is "routed" in the Fibre Channel World - show flogi database - shows all the mappings |
| PLOGI | N port logging into to its target N port |
| PLRI | N port must exchange ULP with target to ensure target and initiator can communicate |

| VSAN | is like a vlan - is carried on a TE port or trunk expansion port |

| FCoE 3 | (1)standard fiber channel frame size max 2148 DF bit set (2)ethertype 0x8906(3)class-fcoe enables MTU of 2240 |
| FCF | Fibre Channel Forwarder - FCoE switch - connects to VF Port or F port also connects to VE Port - logins occur here |

| FIP Process 5 | (1)Host solicitation(2)switch provides the Fabric-unique FC-MAP(3)host performs FLOGI(4)FCF provides FCID(5)Host uses FPMA for subsequent transmissions - Fabric Provided MAC Address - is how communication occurs |
| OTV | L2 traffic over layer 3 transport - connects 2 Data Centers - used for vMOTION feature as they must be in the same VLAN - OTV can use any L2 or L3 transport - only support on 7K - overlay transport virtualization |
| Issues with Traditional Solutions 4 | EoMPLS (Ethernet over MPLS) Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) or Dark Fiber - (1)complex deployment and management (2)transport dependent(3)ineffecient use of bandwidth(4)Failure from one DC can affect the other |
| AED | forwards layer 2 traffic (unicast, multicast and broadcast) between site and overlay and advertises reachabililty to remote edge device - acts like a root and prevents a loop from occurring |
| 2 benefits of OTV | (1)dynamic encapsulation-no psuedo-wire maintenance-optimal multicast replication-multi-point connectivity-point-to-cloud model(2)protocol learning-preserved failure boundry-built-in loop prevention-automated multihoming-site independence |

| Edge Device | encapsulates and decapsulates between L2 and OTV and all Cisco OTV functions - when arrives 2 options (1) frame destined for somewhere within internal interface (2) frame destinated to MAC learned over overlay interface (42 byte tag added set DF bit and increase MTU) |
| internal interface | connects to the VLANs that are to be extended |
| Join Interface | joins the overlay network |
| overlay interface | encapsulates L2 frames in IP packets |
| site vlan | synchronizes control plane between devices at the same site - must be same on each device at site |
| site identifier | identifies site - must be same for every device at site |
| configuration of overlay 5 | (1) interface overlay 1 (2)(config-if)# otv control-group 239.1.1.1(3)(config-if)#otv data-group 232.1.1.0/28(4)(config-if)#otv join-interface e2/1(5)(config-if)# otv extend-vlan 5-10 - advertises MAC address over the overlay |
| 5 Traits of FabricPath | (1)up to 256 links (2)ECMP(3)shortest path(4)single ingress lookup(5)enhanced L2 only works on F1 and F2 mods and 5500 NOTE: need enhanced L2 license |
| FabricPath topology | FabricPath - Spine & FabricPath Leaf - uses SPF (shortest path tree) between switches - each switch is given a FabricPath ID - runs CLNS - does not run on IP |
| FabricPath How it works 4 | (1) ARP Req (2) Encapsulated in IP (3) Encapsulated in Ethernet (4) Encapsulated in FabricPath - floods this information everywhere much like spanning-tree - then ARP reply comes back - within FabricPath header is Src Switch ID and Dst Switch ID though |
| FabricPath routing | routes based on Switch ID - Spine does not learn MAC address table only Switch ID table (aka Outer Destination Addresss 48 bits - Outer Source Address 48 bits) - otherwise known as TRILL - can have L2 or L3 FabricPath in the core |
| 3 parts to Classic FabricPath Pod | (1)simple configuration - no peer link - no switch pairs - no port channels (2)design flexibility - easily extensible (3) No STP - no traditional bridging - no topology changes - no loops |
