Loop ports in a name server table
Once you have a port enabled to sense Arbitrated Loop ports and there is
actually a loop port attached, then you can verify that it has been recognized
correctly by reading the name server table.
Public loop ports are displayed as NL_Ports (Node Loop), whereas private loop
ports are displayed as TL_Ports (translative loop).
