High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Fabric Shortest Path First (FSPF) is a routing protocol used in Fibre Channel networks. It calculates the best path between switches, establishes routes across the fabric and calculates alternate routes in event of a failure or topology change. FSPF can guarantee in-sequence delivery of frames, even if the routing topology has changed during a failure, by enforcing a 'hold down' time before a new path is activated. FSPF was created by Brocade Communications Systems, and has since been adopted as the industry standard for routing between Fibre Channel switches within a fabric. Fibre Channel, or FC, is a gigabit-speed network technology primarily used for storage networking. Fibre Channel is standardized in the T11 Technical Committee of the InterNational Committee for Information Technology Standards (INCITS), an American National Standards Institute (ANSI)–accredited standards committee.
