`The prior art disclosed by the patent owner and cited by the Examiner fail to teach or suggest, alone or in combination, all the limitations of the V
`independent claims (claims 1, 7 and 11), particularly the map/mapping feature which is a one-to—cne correspondence, as given in a simple table,
`the map physically resident on a router, whereby the router forms the connection between two separate entities over different transport mediums,
`such that neither entity determines where data is to be sent, but rather, the router solely dictates where the data will be sent; also the “NLLBP"

`ENGLISH—ABST:
`
`A storage router ( 56) and storage network( 50) provide virtual local storage on remote SCSI storage devices (
`60, 62, 64) to Fiber Channel devices. A plurality of Fiber Channel devices, such as workstations ( 58), are connected to
`a Fiber Channel transport medium( 52), and a plurality of SCSI storage devices ( 60, 62, 64) are connected to a SCSI
`bus transport medium( 54). The storage router ( 56) interfaces between the Fibre Channel transport medium( 52) and
`the SCSI bus transport medium( 54). The storage router ( 56) maps between the workstations ( 58) and the SCSI stor-
`.
`age devices ( 60, 62, 64) and implements access controls for storage space on the SCSI storage devices ( 60, 62, 64).
`The storage router ( 56) then allows access from the workstations ( 58) to the SCSI storage devices ( 60, 62, 64) using .
`native low level, block protdcol in accordance with the mapping and the access controls.

`(A1) Utility Patent Application published on or after January 2, 2001
`(B2)-U.S. Patent
`(with pre—grant pub.) after Jan. 2, 2001
`A storage router (56) and storage network (50) provide virtual local
`storage on remote SCSI storage devices (60, 62, 64)
`to Fiber Channel
`devices. A plurality of Fiber Channel devices, such as workstations
`(58), are connected to a Fiber Channel transport medium (52), and a
`plurality of SCSI storage devices (60, 62, 64) are connected to.a SCSI
`bus transport medium (54). The storage router (56)
`interfaces between
`the Fibre Channel transport medium (52) and the SCSI bus transport
`medium (54). The storage router (56) maps between the workstations
`(58) and the SCSI storage devices (60, 62, 64) and implements access
`controls for storage space on the SCSI storage devices (60, 62, 64).
`The storage router (56)
`then allows access from the workstations (58)
`to the SCSI storage devices (60, 62, 64) using native low level, block
`protocol in accordance with the mapping and the access controls.
