G_Port
Point-to-point port, but not yet E_Port or F_Port.
L_Port
Loop port; displays the number of NL_Ports.
EX_Port
Router port; displays the WWN of the attached edge switch.
VF_Port
FCoE Virtual F_Port. For these ports, the number of NPIV or external device
logins is displayed ("n VN-Port(s)"), instead of the WWN of the internal port.
VF_Port Disabled
FCoE Virtual F_Port is disabled.
D-Port Dynamic
The port is in Dynamic D_Port mode.
D-Port F-Port WWN Dynamic
The port is connected to a device port in the D_Port mode.
SIM-Port
The port is a simulated (SIM) port.
Mirror Port
The port is a mirror port.
(Trunk master)
The port is the master port in a group of trunking ports.
(Trunk port, master is port #x)
The port is configured as a trunking port; the master port is port #x.
(upstream)
The E_Port is an upstream path toward the principal switch of the fabric.
(downstream)
The E_Port is a downstream path away from the principal switch of the fabric.
FICON Persistent DID
This port has been disabled, because the switch could not obtain its configuration
domain ID during the fabric reconfiguration when fmsmode was enabled. See the
ficonCupSet help page for more information.
Fabric ID conflict
Two different fabrics have been assigned the same fabric ID. Applicable only to
EX_Ports and Logical Fabric environments.
Fabric ID oversubscribed
One fabric has been assigned two different fabric IDs (EX_Ports only).
AoQ
Application-oriented QoS; indicates that an F_Port or N_Port has negotiated a link
that is capable of quality of service (QoS). Both sides of the link have QoS
capability and agreed on the protocol. The link could be between an HBA and an
Access Gateway, between an Access Gateway and an edge switch, or between
an HBA and an edge switch.
LB mode
If the Access Gateway cannot negotiate QoS capabilities with the edge switch, an
HBA connected to the Access Gateway will not be able to negotiate a QoS link
with the Access Gateway.
