Monitoring and Managing the Switch
• Port WWN
The port WWN of the attached node (N_Port). The 16-digit WWN
is a set of unique numbers assigned to the device attached to the
port. The WWN is prefixed by the manufacturer’s name of the
host bus adapter that attaches to the device. If there is a nickname
assigned, the nickname displays instead of the WWN. For private
loop devices, “Not Logged In” displays.
• Unit Type
The following information, if supported, is supplied by the
attached device:
—Converter
—Gateway
—HBA
—Module
—Other
—Proxy-agent
—Storage device
— Software driver
— Storage subsystem
—Switch
—Unknown
NOTE: The Unit Type comes directly from the device’s sense ID when the
device attaches to the port during login. If the connection is lost to the device,
the type will display as “Unspecified,” since the device is no longer logged
into the port. When the device logs back in, the unit type updates.
•BB_Credit
The BB_Credit supported by the device. For private loop devices,
this field will be blank.
Double-click a row to display the Node Properties dialog box. For an
explanation of the fields on the Node Properties dialog box, refer to
Displaying Node Properties.
