worldwide name) are provided. The Fibre Channel DID number is the physical Fibre Channel address being used by the N_Port.

A list of all other Fibre Channel devices on this SCSI bus, with their SCSI ID, port name, node name, physical Fibre Channel address and other items such as:

•Present — The adapter indicates that this N_Port is present on the fabric

•Logged in — The adapter and remote N_Port have exchanged initialization parameters and have an open channel for communications (nonprotocol-specific communications)

•FCP Target — This N_Port acts as a SCSI target device (it receives SCSI commands)

•FCP Logged in — The adapter and remote N_Port have exchanged FCP-specific initialization parameters and have an open channel for communications (Fibre Channel protocol-specific communications)

•Logged Out — The adapter and remote N_Port do not have an open channel for communication

•FCP Initiator — The remote N_Port acts as a SCSI initiator device (it sends SCSI commands)

•FCP Suspended — The driver has invoked a temporary suspension on SCSI traffic to the N_Port while it resolves a change in connectivity

•F_PORT — The fabric connection (F_Port) allowing the adapter to send Fibre Channel traffic into the fabric

•Directory Server — The N_Port is the FC entity queried to determine who is present on the Fibre Channel fabric

A target ID of -1 (or -2) shows up for remote Fibre Channel devices that do not communicate using Fibre Channel protocol, the directory server, and F_Port.
