Description

Field

Group

Type of device that the port is connected to: Free, Disk, Host, Peer, RC, or
InServ.

Connected Device
Type

Name of device that the port is connected to, for example, host1, cage0.

Connected Device

Port firmware mode setting. Ports in Initiator mode are connected to drive
cages and ports in Target mode export to hosts. Suspended mode is for

Mode

target ports that have not yet been initialized by the system (rare). Peer mode
is for Ethernet ports.

Current state of the port: Ready, Login Wait, Loss Sync, or Offline.

State

For iSCSI ports. The MAC address for the Ethernet interface.

MAC

For iSCSI ports. The Target Portal Group Tag for the iSCSI target portal group.

TPGT

The throughput in KB/s. (Not shown for RCFC or Persistence ports.)

Total Data
Throughput

Resources

The type of port connection.

Connection Mode

Settings (displayed
for FC and RCFC
ports)

Connection type or port connection setting (Loop, Point, or Loop-point). When
the port is set to Loop-point, both loop and point-to-point connections are
enabled.

Connection Type

Data transfer rate setting (for example, 1 Gbps). Auto indicates that the
system automatically selects the rate.

Configured Rate

Maximum rate of connection from the port.

Max Rate

Indicates whether Fibre Channel service Class 2 is Disabled, Ack 1 or Ack
0.

Class 2

For fabric attached ports, indicates the VLUN change notification setting.
When set to Enabled, notices are generated and sent to the fabric controller.
When set to Disabled, no notification is sent.

VCN

Indicates whether the node's WWN is Enabled or Disabled.

Unique Node WWN

If disabled, each I/O generates a separate interrupt to the HBA (Host Bus
Adapter) port driver rather than generating one interrupt for multiple I/O
completion.

Interrupt Coalesce

For RCIP ports. MAC address of the Ethernet interface.

MAC

IP Settings
(displayed for RCIP
and iSCSI ports)

For iSCSI ports. Indicates if the DHCP protocol is enabled.

DHCP

IP address of the iSCSI or RCIP port.

IP Address

The address of a local IP router on the same network as the system, used to
forward traffic to destinations beyond the local network.

Gateway

Netmask address for the iSCSI or RCIP interface.

Subnet Mask

Maximum Transmission Unit. The greatest amount of data or "packet" size
that can be transferred at one time over a particular network connection

MTU

without overburdening the connection. The default MTU setting for an iSCSI
port is 1500. When supported by the network, an MTU value of 9000 should
be used.

(For RCIP ports.) The configured data transfer rate. A value of 0 indicates
that no data is being transferred.

Configured Rate

(For iSCSI ports.) Data transfer rate. A value of 0 indicates that no data is
being transferred.

Rate

(For iSCSI ports.) The TCP port number used by the iSCSI card.

TCP Port

(For RCIP ports.) The duplex speed, Half or Full.
