Opis

Now in its eleventh printing, Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop remains the only book devoted exclusively to the theory and operation of Arbitrated Loop technology. Recently revised, Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop includes the most recent changes and enhancements in the second generation of the Arbitrated Loop standard (FC-AL-2). Using more than 140 figures and 40 tables to illustrate the essential concepts and operation of the loop, this book proceeds step-by-step from basic loop concepts through detailed examination of all loop protocols. Unlike other texts, including the standards themselves, Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop expands on key factors such as Arbitrated Loop performance, hubs, and the design of high-availability loops. It's the ultimate resource for anyone involved in this dynamic technology.
