发明名称 Fiber channel over Ethernet and fiber channel switching based on Ethernet switch fabrics
摘要 An apparatus comprising a Converged Port Controller (CPC) comprising a plurality of first ports and a plurality of second ports, and an Ethernet Switch Fabric (ESF) coupled to the second ports, wherein the CPC is configured to receive a plurality of Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) frames on the first ports, modify at least some of the FCoE frames, thereby producing modified FCoE frames, and transmit the FCoE frames on the second ports. An apparatus comprising at least one processor configured to implement a method comprising receiving a plurality of FCoE frames, a plurality of Fiber Channel (FC) frames, and a plurality of Ethernet frames, modifying the FCoE frames, thereby producing modified FCoE frames, encapsulating the FC frames in an Ethernet format, thereby producing a plurality of second FCoE frames, and switching the modified FCoE frames, the second FCoE frames, and the Ethernet frames using an Ethernet switch fabric.
