With data center bridging, LANs look to avoid losing packets by adding extensions to the existing protocol suite and to provide reliability without requiring the complexity of configuring TCP. Data center bridging capable Ethernet network adapters must be installed in computers and switches that are providing Windows Server data center bridging.
