switch. Traffic is active on this link.
• Linked-Standby—There is a physical connection to a VC module and a
switch. Currently there is no active traffic on this link.
• Unlinked—There is no physical VC module or switch connection.
• FCoE Active—An FCoE network has been defined, uplinks are
connected, and an FCoE-capable switch has been correctly configured.
• No FCoE—An FCoE network has been defined, uplinks are connected,
but an FCoE-capable switch has not been configured, or the connection
is to a non-FCoE switch.
If the port is unlinked and no connectivity exists, the cause is displayed. For
more information about possible causes, see "Port status conditions (on
page 269 )."
