RRDY

The receiving node on this port has sent an R_RDY signal,

 

 

indicating that it is ready for a frame to be transmitted over the

 

 

link.

 

 

 

 

CLS

The port is attempting to begin the process of closing the current

 

 

loop circuit.

 

 

 

 

OPN

The port is attempting to open communications with another

 

 

port on the loop. Note: As is the case with some ordered sets, an

 

 

OPN may not go all the way around the loop, instead stopping

 

 

at its destination.

 

 

 

 

LIP F8

A non-switching port has detected a loop failure on its receive

 

 

input, is notifying other ports, and is determining whether the

 

 

loop is still operational.

 

 

Some events that could cause the port to detect loop failure

 

 

follow:

 

 

• A device in the loop has failed.

 

 

• A device in the loop has been powered off.

 

 

• The physical connection between the transmitter and receiver

 

 

is broken.

 

 

• Activating the port bypass circuit does not typically result in a

 

 

loop failure.

 

 

 

 

LIP F7

A loop port is in the non-participating mode and is attempting

 

 

to win arbitration and begin initialization, possibly because the

 

 

port was reset or is powering up. Sometimes the port is sending

 

 

this sequence to another, hot-cascaded switch like a new initiator

 

 

being inserted in the loop.

 

 

 

 

LIP

A Loop Initialization Primitive (LIP) sequence has been detected

 

 

and action has been taken.

 

 

 

 

Unknown

The switch can not determine what is being transmitted.

 

 

 

 

InvTxWd

An invalid transmit word has been detected.

 

 

 

 

CRC Err

A Frame CRC error has been detected.

 

 

 

 

Pt-to-Pt

A point-to-point connection has been detected.
