About fcst
==========
$Id$
The fcst kernel module implements an SCST target driver for the FCoE protocol.
FCoE or Fibre Channel over Ethernet is a protocol that allows to communicate
fibre channel frames over an Ethernet network. Since the FCoE protocol
requires a lossless Ethernet network, special network adapters and switches
are required. Ethernet network adapters that support FCoE are called
Converged Network Adapters (CNA). The standard that makes lossless Ethernet
communication possible is called DCB or Data Center Bridging.
FCST is a module that depends on libfc and SCST to provide FC target support.
