which type of technology encapsulates fibre channel communications over tcp/ip using routing?
ifcp
the ifcp protocol layer's main function is to transport fibre channel frame images between fibre channel ports attached both locally and remotely. ifcp encapsulates and routes the fibre channel frames that make up each fibre channel information unit via a predetermined tcp connection for transport across the ip network when transporting frames to a remote fibre channel port.

fibre channel over ethernet









































fibre channel over ethernet (fcoe) is a computer network technology that encapsulates fibre channel frames over ethernet networks. this allows fibre channel to use 10 gigabit ethernet networks (or higher speeds) while preserving the fibre channel protocol. the specification was part of the international committee for information technology standards t11 fc-bb-5 standard published in 2009.

fcoe transports fibre channel directly over ethernet while being independent of the ethernet forwarding scheme. the
