This chapter covers the various types of Frames used for data transmission and protocol control under the Fibre Channel Standard protocol. All Frames follow the
Fibre Channel General Introduction
The data is sent in frames that are maximum 2148 bytes long. Frames have a header and a checksum. A set of related frames for one operation is called a Sequence. For flow control the Fibre Channel
Data and Payload fields in Fibre Channel frame header
I came across this image of a FC frame header. I see that there are two fields, a 2112 byte data field and a 2048 byte payload field. I tried to read
Fibre Channel Standard
The Fibre Channel standards define two basic frame types: frame type 0 (FT-0) and frame type 1 (FT-1). The frame type is identified by bits in the Routing_Control field of the frame header.
