Methods and apparatus for encapsulating a frame for transmission in a storage area network

The invention claims a sealing packet or the frame is provided with a method and device for storage area network is. The receiving or production packet or a frame; the standard protocol of grouping or a frame and a storage area network using compatible. Wires; and virtual storage regions network identifier sealing on grouping or a frame. Further can use and TTL MPLS and information and flowing from the packet or a frame bearing current capacity type sealed on grouping or a frame. For example, flowing from the packet or a frame bearing current capacity type of the Ethernet and fibre channel and infinite bandwidth. Once are sealed, packet or a frame for encapsulating is transmitted through the storage area network. For example, capable of grouping or a frame of a switch cabinet, comprising a switchboards ring, and transmitting the storage area network.
