CISCO-SANTAP-MIB

MIB module to provide information about the SanTap service configuration. SanTap is a fibre channel switch based capability that provides a reliable copy of the data flowing between a set of one or more initiators and a set of one or more targets connected to the fabric. Adminstrator must configure the switch to create the Control Virtual Target (CVT) for the SanTap service. CVTs are used to implement the control path which process all SanTap service requests sent out by an appliance. Prior to requesting for SanTap service the appliance contacts the CVT, specifies the initiator and the target for replicating the data flowing between them. This MIB provides an interface to configure the CVT for the SanTap service on the fibre channel switch modules. Glossary of terms used in this MIB: Fabric - The set of physically connected fibre channel switches. VSAN - Virtual Storage Area Network, similar to a Virtual Fabric as defined by T11. WWN - World Wide Name. Mechanism of uniquely identifying the devices in Fibre Channel Networks. Appliance - It is a storage target, which can requests the SanTap service for the reliable copy of the data flowing between a specific host initiator and a target. CVT - Control Virtual Target. It is a logical target port that resides on the switch and is used for the purpose of communicating control traffic from an appliance. DVT - Data Virtual Target. It is a logical target port that resides on the switch and is used to intercept traffic meant for a real target.
