Cisco MDS 9200 License

The MDS 9200 series includes the MDS 9250i, MDS 9222i, and MDS 9200 switches. These switches offer a range of port densities and support for Fibre Channel (FC), Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), and iSCSI protocols. The MDS 9250i is the flagship switch in the series and offers up to 96 FC ports or 48 FCoE ports, while the MDS 9222i offers up to 48 FC ports or 24 FCoE ports. The MDS 9200 switch is a smaller form factor switch that offers up to 24 FC ports or 12 FCoE ports.

One of the key features of the MDS 9200 series is its high-performance architecture. These switches are designed to deliver line-rate performance and low latency, which is essential for high-speed storage networks. The MDS 9250i and MDS 9222i switches support 16 Gbps FC and 10 Gbps FCoE, while the MDS 9200 switch supports 8 Gbps FC and 10 Gbps FCoE.

Another important feature of the licensed Cisco MDS 9200 series is its support for virtualization. These switches offer advanced virtualization features such as N-Port ID Virtualization (NPIV), Virtual Storage Area Network (VSAN), and Virtual Machine Mobility (VMM).
