The LSI Logic FC host adapters are preloaded with firmware that
presents a multiprotocol service layer based on the Fusion-MPT
architecture. The FC firmware provides FCP (SCSI-3 over FC) Initiator,
FCP Target, and LAN interface services to the host system.
The FC949X.ROM file contains the firmware to operate the LSIFC949X
controller used on all of the 4 Gbit/s LSI Logic host adapters. When
updates are necessary, LSI Logic releases new firmware to improve the
functionality or performance of these host adapters. The user may
download the latest firmware from the LSI Logic web site at:
