NAME
       qlc - ISP2200, ISP2300, and SP212 Family Fibre Channel host bus adapter driver.

SYNOPSIS
       SUNW,qlc

DESCRIPTION
       The qlc host bus adapter driver is a Sun Fibre Channel transport  layer-compliant  nexus driver for the Qlogic ISP2200, ISP2200A,  ISP2310,
       ISP2312, and SP212 adapters. These adapters support  Fibre Channel SCSI and  IP Protocols, FC-AL public loop profile, point-to-point fabric
       connection and Fibre  Channel service classes two and three (see NOTES section below).

       The  qlc driver interfaces with the Sun Fibre Channel transport	layer to support the standard functions provided by the SCSA interface. It
       supports auto request sense and tagged  queueing by default. The driver requires that all devices have unique  hard  addresses  in  private
       loop configurations. Devices with conflicting hard addresses are not accessible.

NOTES
	SP-212-based  host bus adapters (including QLA-210) are supported on x86 platforms only and are limited to a maximum of 8  targets in fab-
       ric and sixteen targets in local loop topology. FL topology is not supported with the SP-212-based host bus adapter.
