Refer to the exhibit. A Cisco engineer is implementing a customer data center design and must configure Cisco MDS 9000 Series Switches. The configuration has the required IP addresses on each SAN. The requirement is that each FCIP is a separate E (ISL), and the FCIP links must connect to different switches across the two SAN islands. Also, the Fibre Channel traffic is to be load-balanced across the FCIP link. After the engineer configures the FCIP profiles and interfaces, they want to enable QoS for the link. Which types of values are needed for the DSCP to mark the IP packets?

Question

Accepted Answer

C. control and data connection When enabling QoS for FCIP links, DSCP values are used to mark IP packets, separating 'control' traffic (e.g., protocol signaling, keepalives) from 'data' traffic (Fibre Channel frames). This allows for differentiated treatment and prioritization of critical control plane traffic over bulk data traffic to maintain link stability and performance.

Answer

A. E (ISL) and GE peer ports speed E (ISL) and GE peer ports speed refer to port types and bandwidths, which are physical attributes, not QoS marking values for DSCP.

Answer

B. port channel and F-ports Port channel and F-ports describe link aggregation and Fibre Channel port roles, respectively, and are not related to DSCP marking values for QoS.

Answer

D. retransmit and keepalive timeout Retransmit and keepalive timeout are parameters for FCIP session reliability and liveliness detection, not values used for classifying and marking IP packets for QoS.
