Should the next-hop IP router die, the iFCP box will capitalize on its resident IP routing intelligence and transparently move on to a different egress IP port (e.g., a higher cost path in all likelihood). Should the next-hop IP router die, the FCIP box will be stuck unless a) the resident FSPF is being taught about failure semantics of IP ports and associated countermeasures (ouch!), or b) complexity spills over onto the next-hop router (e.g., make it a VRRP-enabled router farm).
