Ports configured for FCIP operation can be configured to support up to three
virtual ISL connections (FCIP tunnels). An FCIP link transports Fibre Channel
traffic transparently over IP between two FCIP capable switches. Each link acts
as a virtual Fibre Channel ISL with either an E port or a TE port at each end.
Ports configured for iSCSI operation allow IP attached initiators access to FC
attached targets with the IPS modules. The module terminates iSCSI commands
from the hosts and initiates new Fibre Channel commands to the targets, and
performs the translation between IP and Fibre Channel domains.
