Help text

Fibre Channel is a high speed serial protocol mainly used to connect large storage devices to the computer; it is compatible with and intended to replace SCSI.

This is an experimental support for storage arrays connected to your computer using optical fibre cables and the "X3.269-199X Fibre Channel Protocol for SCSI" specification. If you want to use this, you need to say Y here and to "SCSI support" as well as to the drivers for the storage array itself and for the interface adapter such as SOC or SOC+. This subsystem could even serve for IP networking, with some code extensions.

If unsure, say N.
