APPENDIX E Glossary

 

 

Non-overlapping

Enables the switch to be divided into separate environments,

Zones

where each environment sustains a complete 127-device AL_PA

 

space.

 

Open

An Arbitrated Loop protocol used to establish a switch circuit.

Overlapping

Devices on one port are not allowed to see devices on another

Zones

port, yet those same devices can both see a device on a third

 

port.

 

Protocol

A data transmission convention which may include timing,

 

control, formatting, error detection with correction and data

 

representation.

 

SCSI

Small Computer System Interface. Standard interface for storage

 

modules.

 

SFP

Small Form-Factor Pluggable transceiver. These transceivers are

 

fully compliant with the FC-PI and MSA standards and occupy

 

less than half the board space of the existing GBIC products.

SNMP

Simple Network Management Protocol. A protocol for

 

managing systems and devices in a network. Supports the

 

retrieving data, writing data, and setting traps indicating events.

Topology

The logical and/or physical arrangement of stations on a

 

network. Fibre Channel topologies include point-to-point,

 

Arbitrated Loop, and switched fabric.

Transceiver

A device that converts one form of signaling to another for both

 

transmission and reception. SFPs and GBICs are transceivers.

Zoning

Dividing a network into separate areas to group devices and

 

isolate traffic.
