Fibre Channel Frame Encapsulation
RFC 3643, “Fibre Channel Frame Encapsulation”, is a Proposed Standard document published in December 2003 by R. Weber, M. Rajagopal, F. Travostino, M. O'Donnell, C. Monia, M. Merhar. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document describes the common Fibre Channel (FC) frame encapsulation format and a procedure for the measurement and calculation of frame transit time through the IP network. This specification is intended for use by any IETF protocol that encapsulates FC frames.
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
