Node List view
To display the Node List view, click the Node List view tab. A table similar to the one shown in
Figure 9 on page 42 is displayed in the View panel. This table provides information about all node
attachments or N_Ports that have logged in to existing F_Ports on the director. Only N_Ports display
in the Node List view after nodes have logged in to the fabric.
The columns that display in the table include: port number where the node is attached, the port’s
address, WWN of the attached node’s port, unit type, and BB_Credit used by the attached node.
To display the Node Properties dialog box for a port, double-click the port row.
To display the following menu options for a port, right-click the port row:
• Node Properties—Displays the Node Properties dialog box.
• Port Properties—Displays the Port Properties dialog box.
• Define Nickname—Displays the Define Nickname dialog box, where you can define a
nickname to display for the attached device instead of the device’s eight-byte WWN.
