    FCIP rev 06a available



    Revision 06a of the FCIP draft is available as:
    
      ftp://ftp.t11.org/t11/pub/fc/bb-2/01-482v1.pdf or
      ftp://ftp.t11.org/t11/pub/fc/bb-2/01-482v0.txt
    
    Revision 06a contains the following changes:
    
    1) In Annex D, clarify that the FC Encapsulation header CRC
       field is reserved in FCIP.
    2) In 8.4.3, eliminate the use of "authentication MAC"
       because it is not the preferred terminology. Instead use
       "ESP packet".
    3) In 7.1.3, change wording so that the IP Address of the
       remote FCIP entity is known to the security setup function.
       Also remove security information from the list of things
       the FCIP Entity must determine because the security setup
       is complete by the time the list is relevant.
    4) In 7.1.4, be sure security is applied to both the SLP
       discovery process and to new connections established as
       a result of SLP discovery. Also remove security information
       from the list of things the FCIP Entity must determine
       because the security setup is complete by the time the
       list is relevant.
    5) In 7.1.5, clarify that the FCIP Entity receiving a TCP
       connect request must do its part in setting up security.
    6) Incorporate changes in 5.6.2.2 promised by Sudhir
       Srinivasan (IPS list 9/10/01 morning) in response to
       issues of clarity raised by Barry Reinhold in a message
       titled "FCIP: Intent of standard in 6.6.2.2" (9/6/01
       afternoon). Sudhir subsequently suggested wording changes
       and they appear in 5.6.2.2 (Note: section numbers changed
       between -05 from which Barry derived the section number
       and -06a where the changes are being made.)
    7) Review all SHALLs, MUSTs, etc. to be sure that all caps
       are used only for interoperability requirements, as per
       the discussion at the Orange County interim.
    
    Enjoy.
