(py'pÉ) Plural pupae (py'pÄ) An insect in the nonfeeding stage of development between the larva and adult, during which it typically undergoes a complete transformation within a protective cocoon or hardened case. Only certain kinds of insects, such as moths, butterflies, ants, and beetles, develop as larvae and pupae.
Usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) is a form of lung disease characterized by progressive scarring of both lungs. The scarring (fibrosis) involves the supporting framework (interstitium) of the lung. UIP is thus classified as a form of interstitial lung disease.
FIP is the set of control plane functions that enable discovery of FCoE-capable devices across FCoE passthrough switches and establishment of legal combinations of virtual links. Both FCoE and FIP are described in T11 FC-BB-5.iven a physical Ethernet interface on an FCoE device (or, more accurately, what FC-BB-5 calls an FCoE controller behind that interface), the FCoE device must establish all the virtual links for which that physical interface is configured.
