    I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-ips-ifcp-01.txt



    A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
    This draft is a work item of the IP Storage Working Group of the IETF.
    
    	Title		: iFCP - A Protocol for Internet Fibre Channel Storage Networking
    	Author(s)	: C. Monia
    	Filename	: draft-ietf-ips-ifcp-01.txt
    	Pages		: 54
    	Date		: 20-Apr-01
    	
    This document specifies iFCP, a gateway-to-gateway protocol for the
    implementation of a Fibre Channel fabric in which TCP/IP switching
    and routing elements replace Fibre Channel components. The
    protocol enables the attachment of existing Fibre Channel storage
    products to an IP network by supporting the subset of fabric
    services required by such devices.
    The encapsulation described in this version of the document is
    obsolete.  It will be replaced by an encapsulation format which
    will be common to both the iFCP and FCIP protocols.

    Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.
    
    Send a message to:
    	mailserv@ietf.org.
    In the body type:
    	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ips-ifcp-01.txt".
    	
    NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
    	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
    	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
    	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
    	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
    	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
    	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
    	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
    	how to manipulate these messages.
    		
    		
    Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
    implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
    Internet-Draft.
