Fibre Channel
Fibre Channel allows for an active intelligent interconnection scheme, called a Fabric, to connect
devices. Everything between the ports on Fibre Channel is called the Fabric. The Fabric is most often
a switch or series of switches that takes the responsibility for routing.
The library allows the selection of the following Fibre Channel port behaviors:
LN Port (default setting)
– an automatic configuration that tries arbitrated loop first, then
switched Fabric

L Port - arbitrated loop

N Port
– point to point protocol in a switched Fabric topology
