Abstract
A host bus adapter for interconnecting a computer system to a storage area network has an embedded processor for processing frames. When frames are received by the processor, it inspects frames for encapsulated write requests and, if encapsulated write request frames are found, de-encapsulates the write request and forwards the write request to a target node of the write request.
