FS_RJT Fibre channel services reject. An indication that a request for fibre channel
services could not be processed.
FSP Fibre Channel Service Protocol. The common protocol used for all fabric
services, transparent to fabric type or topology. See also FS.
FSPF Fabric Shortest Path First. Routing protocol for fibre channel switches.
Full-duplex Mode of communication that allows a port to simultaneously transmit and
receive frames. See also Half-duplex.
Fx_Port Fabric port that can operate either as F
_
Port or FL
_
Port. See also F_Port,
FL_Port.
G_Port Generic Port. Port that can operate either as E
_
Port or F
_
Port. Ports are
defined as G_Ports when disconnected or have not assumed specific function
within fabric.
Gateway IP address assignment that provides translation for incompatible networks.
For example, ATM gateway can connect a fibre channel link to an ATM
connection.
GBIC Gigabit Interface Converter. Removable serial transceiver module that
allows gigabit physical-layer transport for fibre channel.
Gbps Gigabits (1,062,500,000 bits) per second.
GBps Gigabytes (1,062,500,000 bytes) per second.
Half-duplex Mode of communication that allows a port to either transmit or receive
frames, but not both at simultaneously. The only exception is link control
frames, which can be transmitted at any time. See also Full-duplex.
Hard address The AL_PA that an NL_Port attempts to acquire during loop initialization.
Hardware
Translative Mode A method for achieving address translation. The following two hardware
translative modes are available to a QuickLoop enabled switch:
• Standard Translative Mode: Allows public devices to communicate with
private devices that are directly connected to the fabric.
• QuickLoop Mode: Allows initiator devices to communicate with private
or public devices that are not in the same loop.
