QuestionQ24

Describe, differentiate, and apply IT industry trends, standard architectures, technologies, and cloud delivery models.

Which protocol would you recommend for a dedicated, lossless fabric?

  • A Internet SCSI (iSCSI)
  • B Fibre Channel (FCP)
  • C Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)
  • D Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP)
Explanation

Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP) is designed for native Fibre Channel SANs, which are dedicated, lossless storage fabrics. FCoE instead encapsulates Fibre Channel traffic over lossless-capable Ethernet, and iSCSI and FCIP use IP-based transport.
