MPX200 configurations for XP24000/20000
An XP storage system can be configured for simultaneous connectivity to iSCSI and FC attached
hosts. Support for iSCSI to an XP storage system is provided through the MPX200 and an existing
FC switch fabric port (fabric-attached).
Figure 8 (page 18) shows an MPX200-XP single-blade fabric-attached configuration. This is the
lowest-cost configuration and is used when high availability for iSCSI hosts is not required.
