High speed storage area networks using a fibre channel arbitrated loop interconnect.

High speed storage area networks using a fibre channel arbitrated loop interconnect.

Fibre channel arbitrated loops offer a new approach to realizing high-speed storage interconnection networks. We describe an FC-AL topology and FC-AL protocols for storage networks. In particular, we describe channel arbitration, signaling and transmission protocols, and the fibre channel mapping pr...
