The IEEE 1667 TCG Storage Silo
Provides an IEEE 1667 interface to a TCG storage device http://www.trustedcomputinggroup.org
TCG Storage Silo functionality includes:
- Establish a communication channel to the TPer
- Obtain configuration information from the TPer
- Send TCG commands to the TPer
- Receive TCG responses from the TPer
- Reset TPer communications channel
TCG Storage Silo functionality can be implemented at multiple levels
- The Storage Device can natively include both the TCG Storage Silo and the TPer
- The Storage Device can include a bridge which:
- supports a device which implements both the TCG Storage Silo and the TPer. This bridge passes IEEE 1667 commands to this device.
- supports a device which implements a TPer, (but not the TCG Storage Silo). This bridge implements the TCG Storage Silo, passing TPercommands to the device, and/or
- supports a device which implements neither a TPernor a TCG Storage Silo. This bridge implements the TCG Storage Silo and the TPer, not passing IEEE 1667 or TPercommands to the device

Famous quotes containing the word storage:
“Many of our houses, both public and private, with their almost innumerable apartments, their huge halls and their cellars for the storage of wines and other munitions of peace, appear to me extravagantly large for their inhabitants. They are so vast and magnificent that the latter seem to be only vermin which infest them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
