Basic Mode — In this mode, you can view Server Slot, Fabric, Protocol, WWN/MAC addresses, and Partition Status. Only Active MAC addresses are displayed in the WWN/MAC address box. You can filter using any or all of the fields displayed:

Advanced Mode — In this mode you can view all the fields displayed in the basic mode and all the MAC types (Server Assigned, Flex Address, and IO Identity). You can filter using any or all of the fields displayed.

In both the Basic mode and the Advanced mode, the WWN/MAC Addresses information is displayed in a

collapsed form. Click the plus symbol corresponding to a slot or click Expand/Collapse All to view the information for a specific slot or all the slots.
