Windows Communication Foundation what communication protocols are used to access the service, whether security mechanisms are to be used, and the like. WCF includes predefined bindings for most common communication protocols such as SOAP over HTTP, SOAP over TCP, and SOAP over Message Queues, etc. Interaction between WCF endpoint and client is done using a SOAP envelope. SOAP envelopes are in simple XML form, which makes WCF platform-independent. When a client wants to access the service via an endpoint, it not only needs to know the contract, but it also has to adhere to the binding specified by the endpoint. Thus, both client
Fibre Channel network protocols Fibre Channel network protocols Communication between devices in a fibre channel network uses different elements of Fibre Channel standards. All Fibre Channel communication is done in units of four 10-bit codes. This group of 4 codes is called a transmission word. An ordered set is a transmission word that includes some combination of control (K) codes and data (D) codes Each device has an Arbitrated Loop Physical Address (AL_PA). These addresses are defined by an 8-bit field but must have neutral disparity as defined in the 8B/10B coding scheme. That reduces the number of possible values from 256 to 134.
