A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the IP Storage Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: iFCP - A Protocol for Internet Fibre Channel Storage 
                          Networking
	Author(s)	: C. Monia

This document specifies an architecture and gateway-to-gateway
protocol for the implementation of fibre channel fabric
functionality over an IP network. This functionality is provided
through TCP protocols for fibre channel frame transport and the
distributed fabric services specified by the fibre channel
standards. The architecture enables internetworking of fibre
channel devices through gateway-accessed regions having the fault
isolation properties of autonomous systems and the scalability of
the IP network.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
