    Abstract: Approaches for aggregating ports of switch connected to ports of a target node, are described. In one example, for a fiber channel exchange received from a host node, for a target node a plurality of target node ports of the target node associated with the virtual port are determined. The fiber channel exchange comprises a sequence of frame. Once the plurality of target node ports are determined, a first frame is directed to one target node port selected from the plurality of the target node ports, where the one target node port is selected based port selection criteria. Based on the directing of the first frame, subsequent frames of the fiber channel exchange to the selected one target node port are also directed.

    Abstract: A system includes multiple devices in a storage area network (SAN). Each device includes at least one network port, at least one processor, and a management module. The management module is to receive announcements generated by ports included in an announcement group, where the ports are included in the other devices, and where each announcement includes port metadata for a particular port. The management module is also to determine, based on the announcements, a network mapping of the ports and the devices.
