Thaler Status: Standards Track Date: October 2007 Mailbox: mako@us.ibm.com, cbm@rose.hp.com, jhufferd@brocade.com, Uri@Broadcom.com, hemal@broadcom.com, pthaler@broadcom.com Pages: 85 Characters: 202216 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-ips-iser-06.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5046.txt Internet Small Computer System Interface (iSCSI) Extensions for Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) provides the RDMA data transfer capability to iSCSI by layering iSCSI on top of an RDMA-Capable Protocol, such as the iWARP protocol suite. An RDMA-Capable Protocol provides RDMA Read and Write services, which enable data to be transferred directly into SCSI I/O Buffers without intermediate data copies. This document describes the extensions to the iSCSI protocol to support RDMA services as provided by an RDMA-Capable Protocol, such as the iWARP protocol suite. [STANDARDS TRACK] This document is a product of the IP Storage Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.Please refer to the current edition of the Internet Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol.
