Overview#

InterFrame Gap (IFG) or InterPacket Gap (IPG) a minimal pause may be required between network packets or network frames

Ethernet devices must allow a minimum idle period between transmission of Ethernet packets. This InterFrame Gap varies depending on the speed of Ethernet

For Fibre Channel, there is a sequence of "primitives" between successive frames,
