A
Frame
Data unit consisting of a start-of-frame
(SOF) delimiter, header, data payload,
CRC, and an end-of-frame (EOF)
delimiter.
ICMP
Internet Control Message Protocol
IETF
Internet Engineering Task Force
Initiator
The device that initiates a data exchange
with a target device.
Internet Engineering Task Force
A large open international community of
network designers, operators, vendors,
and researchers concerned with evolution
and smooth operation of the Internet, and
responsible for producing RFCs. The
standards body responsible for Internet
standards, including SNMP, TCP/IP and
policy for QoS.
Internet Control Message Protocol
A control protocol strongly related to IP
and TCP, and used to convey a variety of
control and error indications.
InteropCredit
Port configuration parameter that adjusts
the number of port buffer credits to allow
interoperability with some non-QLogic
switches.
IP
Internet Protocol
ISLSecurity
ISLSecurity determines which switches a
port will establish a link with. ANY - we will
link with any switch. Ours - we will only link
to another QLogic switch. None - the port
will not establish an ISL link.
LCFEnable
LCFEable gives preference to Link control
frames (such as Class 2 ACK frames) over
other frames, when queued for
transmission in the switch. This may
provide better performance when running
Class 2 traffic. LCFEable is incompatible
with MFSEnable, and both cannot be
selected. (True / False)
LIP
Loop Initialization Primitive sequence
Location
Specifies the switch location. The default
is undefined.
Logged-In LED
A port LED that indicates device login or
loop initialization status.
Management Information Base
A set of guidelines and definitions for the
Fibre Channel functions.The specification
and formal description of a set of objects
and variables that can be read and
possibly written using the SNMP protocol.
Various standard MIBs are defined by the
Internet Engineering Task Force.
Management Workstation
Workstation that manages the fabric
through the fabric management switch.
