buffer-to-buffer flow control
Flow control between two connected ports.
Flow control occurs between two connected Fibre Channel ports (e.g., an N_Port and its associated F_Port or two E_Ports). A port indicates the number of frames that can be sent to it (i.e., its buffer-to-buffer credit) before the sender is required to stop transmitting and wait for the receipt of additional credit.
