Estimating the term…
Apparatus and system that perform the method of providing a FCoE Transformer including an Ethernet Interface and a Fibre Channel Interface, receiving, at the FCoE Transformer, an FCoE Frame via a Layer 2 Ethernet Switch, converting, at the FCoE Transformer, the FCoE Frame to a Fibre Channel Frame. The FCoE Frame includes a SOF field included in an FCoE Transport Header for providing an SOF character used to start the fibre channel frame, and the SOF field in the FCoE Transport Header is for encoding the SOF field, Fibre Channel Frame. The FCoE Frame includes an EOF field included in an FCoE Transport Header for providing an EOF character used to end the fibre channel frame, and the EOF field in the FCoE Transport Header is for encoding the EOF field, Fibre Channel Frame. The method includes transporting the Fibre Channel Frame.
A method of operating a FCoE transformer including an Ethernet interface and a fibre channel interface, wherein the method comprises the steps of:
A FCoE transformer comprising an Ethernet interface and a fibre channel interface, wherein the FCoE transformer is configured to:
A system comprising:
