What is a key advantage of implementing FCIP?
A. Provides a disaster recovery solution by replicating data across data centers.
B. Enables migration of VMs across data centers by using existing FC networks.
C. Ensures lossless transmission of FC traffic across data centers over Ethernet.
D. Provides a dedicated network for transmission of storage traffic within a data center.

C is the correct answer
FCIP protocol works by transmitting FC frames over TCP/IP, which can route FCIP FC frames over existing Ethernet switches and routers. Answer C
FC SAN provides a high-performance infrastructure for localized data movement. It also:
Provides IP-based protocol that is used to interconnect distributed FC SAN islands over an IP network
Encapsulates FC frames onto IP packet and transports over existing IP network
Enables transmission by tunneling data between FC SAN islands
Provides disaster recovery solution by enabling replication of FC data across an IP network
Facilitates data sharing and data collaboration from worldwide location
The answer is C
The correct answer is A, because is over Internet Protocol no over Ethernet.
