ABSTRACT:
A method and system for monitoring frame flow in a Fiber Channel network is provided. The method includes, deleting fill words before any frame data is allowed to be stored in a buffer memory; storing only certain primitive signals and/or frame data in the buffer memory; reading the buffer memory without delay, if a primitive signal is stored in the buffer memory; and delaying reading the buffer memory if frame data is detected. The network includes, a host bus adapter that includes a fiber channel protocol manager that includes a receive logic that deletes fill words before any frame data is allowed to be stored in a buffer memory, wherein the buffer memory stores only certain primitive signals and/or frame data and the buffer memory is read without any delay, if a primitive signal is stored, while a read operation of the buffer memory involving frame data is delayed.
