LIP

Loop initialization primitive. The signal that begins initialization

 

in a loop. It indicates either loop failure or the resetting of

 

a node.

LM_TOV

Loop master time-out value. The minimum time that the loop

 

master waits for a loop initialization sequence to return.

loop failure

Loss of signal within a loop for any period of time; loss of

 

synchronization for longer than the time-out value.

Loop_ID

A hexadecimal value representing one of the 127 possible

 

AL_PA values in an arbitrated loop. See also ???.

loop initialization

The logical procedure used by an L_Port to discover its

 

environment. Can be used to assign AL_PA addresses, detect

 

loop failure, or reset a node. See also ???.

LPSM

Loop port state machine. The logical entity that performs

 

arbitrated loop protocols and defines the behavior of L_Ports

 

when they require access to an arbitrated loop. See also L_Port.

LWL

Long wavelength. A type of fiber optic cabling that is based on

 

1300 mm lasers and supports link speeds up to 2 Gb/s. May

 

also refer to the type of transceiver. See also SWL.

master port

The port that determines the routing paths for all traffic flowing

 

through a trunking group. One of the ports in the first ISL in the

 

trunking group is designated as the master port for that group.

 

See also ISL trunking.

MIB

Management Information Base. An SNMP structure to help

 

with device management, providing configuration and device

 

information. See also SNMP.

multicast

The transmission of data from a single source to multiple

 

specified N_Ports (as opposed to all ports on the network).

N_Port

Node port. A port on a node that can connect to an FC port

 

or to another N_Port in a point-to-point connection.

name server

A term frequently used to indicate a Simple Name Server

 

(SNS). See also SNS.

NL_Port

Node loop port. A node port that has arbitrated loop

 

capabilities. Used to connect an equipment port to the fabric

 

in a loop configuration through an FL_Port. See also node.

node

An FC device that contains an N_Port or NL_Port.
