Viewing logical ports
When base switches are connected through XISLs, a base fabric is formed that includes logical
switches in different chassis. A logical link is formed dynamically among logical switches that have the
same FID to carry frames between the logical switches. Logical ports are created in the respective
switches to support the logical link.
Logical ports are software constructs, and have no corresponding hardware to represent them on the
Switch View. Logical port information is available in the Port Admin tab.
1. Select the Port Admin tab. The Port Admin tab displays. Logical ports are displayed in the FC
Ports Explorer tree structure.
2. To view logical port properties, expand the Logical Ports branch, and select a port. The General
properties are displayed.
