buffer flow control
Management of the frame transmission rate in either a point-to-point topology or
in an arbitrated loop.
C
CLI
Command line interface. Interface that depends entirely on the use of commands,
such as through telnet or SNMP, and does not involve a GUI.
compact flash
Flash (temporary) memory that is u
sed in a manner similar to hard disk storage. It is
connected to a bridging component which connects to the PCI bus of the
processor. Not visible within the processor's memory space.
Configuration
The way in which a system is set up. May refer to hardware or software.
Hardware
: The number, type, and arrangement of components that make up a
system or network.
Software
: The set of parameters that guide switch operation. May include general
system parameters, IP address information, domain ID, and other information.
Modifiable by any login with administrative privileges.
May also refer to a set of zones.
CRC
Cyclic redundancy check. A check for transmission errors that is included in every
data frame.
D
data word
A type of transmission word that occurs within frames. The frame header, data
field, and CRC all consist of data words.
defined zone configuration
The set of all zone objects defined in the fabric. May include multiple zone
configurations.
DLS
Dynamic load sharing. Dynamic distribution of traffic over available paths.
Allows for recomputing of routes when an Fx_Port or E_Port changes status.
