The translation entries list for a TL_Port connected to Private targets will contain the initiators (both Public and Private) that try to communicate with those targets. An Auto Learning feature automatically adds these initiators to the ports’ translation entries list. Use Zoning to limit the number of initiators to 31 or less. You may disable Auto Learning for any TL_Port via Switch management. The default for each TL_Port is Auto Learning enabled.
The translation entries list for a TL_Port connected to Private initiators will contain the targets (both Public and Private) that you want the Private initia- tor to communicate with. Auto Learning is not able to enter these targets into the translation entry list. The translation entries list cannot exceed 31 entries. Switch management allows you to manage the translation entries list for these TL_Ports. Auto Learning should be disabled for these TL_Ports connected to Private initiators.
•You may disable Auto Learning for any TL_Port via Switch management. The default for each TL_Port is Auto Learning enabled.
•Devices on TL_Ports cannot communicate with devices on SL_Ports.
•TL_Ports support Broadcast.
•Multiple TL_Ports can coexist in a single fabric. They may be zoned to control access.
•Devices connected to TL_Ports are registered with the Name Server.
•The user must identify Public Targets and Initiators for each TL_Port.
•TL_Ports support all SCSI/FCP frames.
NOTE:
Third Party SCSI commands (i.e. Third Party RESERVE, COPY, XOR) are not supported. A Third Party SCSI command is any command that has a target address embedded in the command (i.e. embedded in the Fibre Channel frame payload).
•TL_Ports support TCP/IP.
