Additional comments
Each 2122-2 is capable of two FCIP instances running simultaneously. At most,
there can only be one server per SR2122-2. To connect to another SR2122-2, a
server/client relationship must exist. For example:
■ SR2122-2 local FC1/GE1—>server connects to SR2122-2 remote
FC1/GE1—>client
■ SR2122-2 local FC2/GE2—>server connects to SR2122-2 remote
FC2/GE1—>server
Note: The SR2122-2 local contains one server and one client; likewise for the
SR2122-2 remote. Each instance must have a server/client relationship.
