Summary

Port Address	Port Fibre Channel address.

Administrative Port Type	The administrative port type (G, GL, F, FL). This value is
	persistent; it will be maintained during a switch reset.
	During port auto-configuration, it will be used to determine
	which operational port states are allowed.

Operational Port Type	The port type that is currently active. This will be set during
	port auto-configuration based on the administrative port
	type.

Administrative Port State	The port state (Online, Offline, Diagnostics, or Down) that
	has been set by the user. This state may be different from
	the configured administrative state if the user has not saved
	it in the switch configuration. This state is used at the time it
	is set to try to set the port operational state. This value is not
	persistent and will be lost on a switch reset.

Operational Port State	The port state that is currently active. This value may be
	different from the administrative port state, for example due
	to an error condition.

Configured Administrative Port State	The port state (Online, Offline, Diagnostics, or Down) that
	is saved in the switch configuration, either by the user or at
	the factory. This value is persistent; it will be maintained
	during a switch reset, and will be used after a reset to set
	the port operational state.

Logged In	Indicates whether logged in or not.

Port Connection Status	E_Port connection status. Status can be None, Connecting,
	Connected or Isolated.

Isolation Reason	E_Port isolation reason

Administrative Port Speed	The speed requested by the user.

Operational Port Speed	The speed actually being used by the port.

Port Speed Supported	The speeds supported by the port (1-Gbps, 2-Gbps,
	4-Gbps)

Symbolic Name	Port symbolic name

Diagnostic Status	Status from the most recent Power-on self test

Diagnostic Fault Code	Fault code from the most recent Power-on self test

Test Status	Status from the most recent port test

Test Fault Code	Fault code from the most recent port test
