Brocade SAN Glossary
Fibre Channel Physical and signaling standard for FC-0, FC-1, and FC-2
layers of the Fibre Channel protocol. Also indicates signaling used for cable
plants, media types, and transmission speeds.
Second-generation Fibre Channel Physical interface.
Third-generation Fibre Channel Physical interface.
Fabric Port Reject Frame. A frame issued by the fabric to indicate that
delivery of a frame is being denied, maybe because class is not supported,
or there is an invalid header, or no N_Port is available.
Fibre Channel Single Bytes.
Fibre Channel Switch Fabric. Specifies tools and algorithms for
interconnection and initialization of Fibre Channel switches to create a
multiswitch Fibre Channel fabric.
Second-generation Fibre Channel Switch Fabric. Specifies tools and
algorithms for interconnection and initialization of Fibre Channel switches to
create a multiswitch Fibre Channel fabric.
Fibre Channel Virtual Interface.
Federal Communications Commission.
Fibre Channel Industry Association. Its mission is to nurture and help
develop the broadest market for Fibre Channel products.
A service that enables SANs to span longer distances than could be
supported with native Fibre Channel links. FCIP is a TCP/IP-based tunneling
protocol that allows the transparent interconnection of geographically
distributed SAN islands through an IP-based network.
Fibre Channel Loop Community.
Fibre Channel Protocol. SCSI to Fibre Channel mapping.
Fibre Distributed Data Interface. ANSI architecture for a Metropolitan Area
Network (MAN); a network based on the use of optical-fiber cable to transmit
data at 100 megabits per second.
Fabric Device Management Interface. A database service provided by the
fabric for Nx_Ports. The primary use is by HBA devices that register
information about themselves and their ports.
Well-known Fibre Channel address for a Class 6 multicast server.
Well-known Fibre Channel address for a clock synchronization server.
Well-known Fibre Channel address for a security key distribution server.
Well-known Fibre Channel address for an alias server.
Well-known Fibre Channel address for a QoS facilitator.
Well-known Fibre Channel address for a management server.
