To smooth the transition from the current methods to the generic approach, the IPI supports device-specific command sets to aid in bridging the gap between the two approaches.<\/p>\n<p>To accomplish this set of goals, the design of the IPI includes device-specific and devicegeneric command sets. The device-specific command set provides:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>device-oriented control;<\/li>\n<li>physical data addressing;<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0timing critical operations;<\/li>\n<li>lower device cost.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The device-generic command set provides a higher level of functionality and portability. It includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>host\/device independence;<\/li>\n<li>logical data addressing;<\/li>\n<li>timing independence;<\/li>\n<li>command queuing capability.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A system is not restricted to the use of one level of command set or the other. It is possible that both levels of command sets will be utilized with a given system&#039;s architecture to balance such parameters as system performance, cost and peripheral availability. It is also possible for the host to provide for the migration from device-specific to device-generic levels while still retaining the same physical interface.<\/p>\n<p>The IPI standards family includes the definition of a high performance, general-purpose parallel peripheral interface. However, the device-generic command set may also be transported over other non-IPI physical interfaces. ANSI X3.291:1997 contains &#034;mappings&#034; to the High-Performance Parallel Interface (HIPPI) and Fibre Channel (FC) as well as to the IPI Enhanced Physical Interface.
