Thank you. That's what I thought. Now for the final piece: It can also handle network traffic on other ports (uplink, trunk, etc) I designate, right?
In fact, I edited this to say that your first response was also more helpful that I first thought, yellbaglff.
In reviewing the config parameters in your Cisco link, I can assume that I can connect both a FC SAN channel and a network SFP at the same time (using different ports, of course). (I just Cisco used plain sentences sometime ha 
)
Please - anyone - correct me if I'm wrong. I like to avoid purchasing this beast and not have the functionality we require. I do undertsand the licensing that would come on top of the hardware to allow it various features (i.e., Layer 3 etc)
Thanks for the input
