350-601 Question #119: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is B: Compression is performed by using hardware. The Cisco MDS 9250i switch and Cisco 24/10 port SAN Extension Module supports Auto, Mode1 and Mode2 compression modes. All of these modes internally use the hardware compression engine in the module. Auto mode is enabled by default. Mode2 uses a larger batch size for compression
Question
Refer to the exhibit. An engineer configures FCIP on a Cisco MDS 9000 Series switch. What is the result of implementing the configuration?
Options
- AThe switch attempts to make two TCP connections
- BCompression is performed by using hardware
- CMode2 is enabled by default.
- DCompression is performed by using software.
Explanation
The Cisco MDS 9250i switch and Cisco 24/10 port SAN Extension Module supports Auto, Mode1 and Mode2 compression modes. All of these modes internally use the hardware compression engine in the module. Auto mode is enabled by default. Mode2 uses a larger batch size for compression than Auto-mode, which results in higher compression throughput. However, Mode2 incurs a small latency due to the compression throughput. For those deployments where aggressive throughput is most important, Mode2 can be used. Mode1 gives the best compression ratio when compared to all other modes. For those deployments where compression ratio is most important, Mode1 can be used.
