LISM Failed N/A The LISM primative is used to select a temporary loop
master for initialization. This counter shows the number of
times the switch was unable to establish itself as the loop
master.
LOF Timeout
ELS
N/A Currently undefined
LOF Timeouts N/A Number of times the switch was unable to transmit a frame
within the R_T_TOV value.
Long Frame

N/A Number of times a frame longer than the maximum frame
size was received.
Loss of Signal N/A Number of signal losses detected for this port.
OLS in fcFPortOlsIns Number of offline sequences received. An OLS is issued for
link initialization, a Receive & Recognize Not_Operational
(NOS) state, or to enter the offline state.
OLS Out fcFPortOlsOuts Number of offline sequences issued by this port. An OLS is

Not_Operational (NOS) state, or to enter the offline state.
The switch may issue an OLS to perform offline diagnostics
or to power down.
OPN Returns N/A Number of times that a device on the loop didn’t accept an
open primative. This usually indicates a device error.
Out frames fcFPortC23OutFrames Number of class 2 and class 3 frames transmitted by this
port.
Protocol errors fcFPortPrimSeqProtErrors Number of primitive sequence protocol errors. An error
indicates that a sequence protocol violates the FC-2
signaling protocol.
Reject frames fcFPortC2FrjtFrames Number of frames, from devices, that have been rejected.
Frames can be rejected for any of a large number of
reasons.
