Cisco MDS 9700 Series Supervisor-1E Module
The Cisco MDS 9700 Series Supervisor-1E Module (DS-X97-SF1E-K9) delivers advanced switching
technology and resources to support the 18 slot chassis (DS-C9718).
The DS-X97-SF1E-K9 module is designed for the Cisco MDS 9718 Director.
The Cisco MDS 9700 Series Supervisor-1E Module supports the following features:
• Supports up to 768 2/4/8/10/16/32-Gbps Fiber Channel ports, or 1/10-Gbps FCoE ports in a single Cisco
MDS 9718 Multilayer Director chassis
• Supports up to 384 40-Gbps FCoE ports in a single Cisco MDS 9718 Multilayer Director chassis
• Supports up to 48-Tbps of Fiber Channel system bandwidth
• Supports DS-X9718-FAB1 crossbar fabric switching module on the Cisco MDS 9718 Multilayer Director
• Multipathing based on Fabric Shortest Path First (FSPF)
• Nondisruptive software upgrades
• Provides high availability. The Cisco MDS 9700 Series Supervisor-1E Module ca automatically restart
failed processes, making it exceptionally robust. In the rare event that a supervisor module is reset,
complete synchronization between the Active and Standby supervisor modules helps ensure a Stateful
Failover with no disruption of traffic.
• Network management through the command-line interface (CLI) and through Cisco Data Center Network
Manager (DCNM)
• Extensive security features including RADIUS and TACACS+, Fiber Channel Security Protocol (FC-SP),
Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), Secure Shell (SSH) Protocol, and Simple Network Management
Protocol Version 3 (SNMPv3) implementing Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), VSANs,
hardware-enforced zoning, ACLs, and per-VSAN role-based access control (RBAC)
• Support for virtual SAN (VSAN) technology and inter-VSAN routing (IVR)
