FIBRE CHANNEL PERFORMANCES WITH IBM EQUIPMENT

A. Using TCP/IP protocols


The first experiment was aimed at estimating the latency introduced by the IBM Fibre Channel Fabric. For that, we measured overheads, communication latencies and throughputs for a large number of message sizes when two workstations were back to back connected and when the Fabric was located in-between.

The second experiment was aimed at estimating the scalability of the fabric when performing several communications in parallel.
