17.3.5.1 Common Service Parameters
The Common Service Parameters apply to all classes of service and are exchanged during Login.
Table 47: Common Service Parameters (FLOGI_REQ/FLOGI_ACC)
The upper byte of the FC-PH Version field indicates the highest version of FC-PH that is supported and the lower byte indi-
cates the lowest. The code/version relationship is given by Table 42.
The BB_Credit field indicates the number of frame buffers that a port guarantees to have immediately available when a loop
circuit is opened. The drive sets this field to 0 (zero); i.e., the drive grants the FL_Port a Login BB_Credit of 0.
The Common Features field contains the following flags:
• VV- Valid Vendor Version Level
When set to one, this flag indicates that the Vendor Version Level field in the frame payload contains valid informa-
tion. The drive sets this field to 0b.
• N/F Port - N_Port/F_Port
When set to one, this flag indicates that the Port is an F_Port. When set to zero, it is an N_Port. The drive checks this
field in the FLOGI_ACC and will revert to PLDA behavior if it is not set to one. The drive sets this field to 0b.
