Abstract

A method for transporting fibre channel (FC) traffic over a packet-switched communication network (28) includes identifying a sub-sequence of repetitive FC signals in a first sequence of FC words accepted over a FC link from a source FC device (24A). The first sequence of FC words is translated into a second sequence of data packets in accordance with a communication protocol supported by the packet-switched communication network. The second sequence includes a repetition indication packet that identifies the sub-sequence of repetitive FC signals. The second sequence of the data packets is transported to a receiver (24B) over the packet-switched communication network using the communication protocol.
