The FiConn topology, in which switching devices and servers are capable of forwarding, was also proposed by Microsoft staff. It is also a server-centric topology. Modern commercial server devices typically have two Ethernet ports, one for network connections and one as a standby port. The core of FiConn topology is to realize network interconnection by using standby server ports, and to eliminate large-scale high-performance switching equipment while ensuring good network performance, thus saving interconnection cost.
