Abstract

Both the requirement of the application and the development of the technology have promoted the research of the new network protocols in network storage, and currently IP-based SAN has become new focus of study. The main network protocols used in IP-based SAN are: iSCSI, FCIP, iFCP and mFCP. They all implement the transmitting of block level storage data over TCP/IP. To understand and master the protocols deeply, this paper elaborates the latest development of these protocols, and analyzes and compares them intensively in regards of protocol stack, implementation model, naming, addressing, discovery and routing etc.
