Dell EMC Associate – Information Storage and Management v4 — Question 29

In a Fibre Channel (FC) protocol stack, what is the function of the FC-2 layer?

Answer options

• A. Provides transmission words, primitive signals, and link initialization
• B. Provides FC addressing, structure, and organization of data
• C. Provides standards for the physical interface, media, and transmission of bits
• D. Provides application interfaces and maps several protocols to FC layers

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the FC-2 layer is responsible for FC addressing and the organization of data. Option A refers to the functions of the FC-1 layer, option C describes the responsibilities of the FC-0 layer, and option D relates to higher application layers rather than the FC-2 layer.
