A new EMC FCoE “Case Studies” TechBook revision is available!

A new version of the “Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and Data Center Bridging (DCB) Case Studies” TechBook is available.  This version introduces a new Juniper QFX3500 case study as well as a few updates (bug fixes) to the existing case studies.  The complete list of configurations described in the TechBook is:

• Brocade 8000 - Direct Connect
• Brocade DCX (FCoE 10-24) Blade – Direct Connect
• Cisco Nexus 5000 – Direct Connect
• Cisco Nexus 7000, 5000, MDS – Multi-hop FCoE
• Cisco Nexus 5000, 2232PP –  vPC Straight-through
• Cisco Nexus 5000, 4001I – vPC Cross-connect
• Cisco Nexus 5000 – Host vPC Direct Connect
• Blade Server case studies:
  • UCS
  • IBM BladeCenter
  • HP Virtual Connect FlexFabric and Flex-10
• Juniper QFX3500 – Gateway and Transit modes

We're currently working on two additional updates that we hope to release in late February.  I’ll provide more detail once we release them, but for now I’ll just say that we’ll be updating the Nexus 7k case study and the UCS case study will be expanded to include an EMC Storage direct connect topology.
