FCP
A standard fibre channel protocol used to run SCSI over fibre channel.
FE-MIB
See
Fibre Channel fabric element.
fiber optics
Branch of optical technology concerned with the transmission of light pulses through
fibers made of transparent materials such as glass, fused silica, and plastic.
fiber
Physical media types supported by the Fibre Channel specification, such as optical
fiber, twisted pair, and coaxial cable.
Fibre Channel
Integrated set of standards recognized by ANSI which defines specific protocols for
flexible information transfer. Logically, a point-to-point serial data channel, structured
for high performance.
Fibre Channel fabric element
Any device linked to a fabric. Information about these devices is recorded in a
management information base (MIB) which can be accessed by fabric management
software.
Fibre Channel I/O controller
Controls the embedded Fibre Channel port on the message path controller card (MPC)
and configures the ports
’
ASICs.
field-replaceable unit
Assembly removed and replaced in its entirety when any one of its components fails.
firmware
Embedded program code that resides and executes on the director.
