Glossary

application-specific integrated circuit

ASIC. An asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) local area network/ wide area network

(LAN/WAN) circuit using cell relay transport technology. ASICs are designed for a specific

application or purpose, such as implementing the lower-layer Fibre Channel protocol (FC-0).

They are particularly suited to sending video and audio information, as well as text. ASICs

differ from general-purpose devices such as memory chips or microprocessors.

area

The second byte of the node port (N_Port) identifier.

arbitrated loop

One of the three connection topologies offered by Fibre Channel protocol. Up to 126 node ports

and one fabric port can communicate without the need for a separate switched fabric.

arbitrated loop physical address

(AL_PA) — A 1-byte value used in the arbitrated loop topology that identifies loop ports

(L_Ports). This value then becomes the last byte of the address identified for each public L_Port

on the loop.

arbitration

Process of choosing one device from a collection of devices that request service simultaneously.

attribute

In S/390 mode, the connection status of the address on a configuration matrix: allowed,

blocked, or prohibited.

audit log

Log summarizing actions (audit trail) made by the user.

authentication

Verification of identity for a person or process.

backbone

Cable on which two or more stations or networks may be attached, typically used to link

computer networks at one site with those at another. Smaller branch networks are sometimes

called ribs.

backplane

The backplane provides 48 VDC power distribution and connections for all logic cards.

backup FRU

When an active field-replaceable unit (FRU) fails, an identical backup FRU takes over

operation automatically (failover) to maintain director and Fibre Channel link operation. See

also

active

FRU.

bandwidth

(1) The difference (expressed in Hertz) between the highest and lowest frequencies in a range of

frequencies. (2) The data transfer rate of a network or electronic communication system.
