The host name displays in the title bar. The table is a two-dimensional view of
the HBAs ports and devices in the machine. The following information displays:
❑ Node Name. World wide device node name
❑ Port Name. World wide device port name
❑ Port ID. Device port ID
❑ HBA Port n (State/Topo/Bind/ID). The HBA port cell in the table represents
a path from the HBA port to the device. The Bind and ID options are not
displayed on Novell NetWare systems.
HBA port cell information consists of the following:
❑ State. The state of the device, which can be Visible, Hidden, or
Unconfigured.
❑ Topo. Short for topology, which is either Fabric (the device is in the fabric)
or Local (the device is on the local loop).
❑ Bind. When this check box is selected, the path is configured and bound
to the target ID. When this check box is cleared, this path is unconfigured.
❑ ID. This drop-down box shows the available target IDs for the target.
In addition, the cell is color-coded as follows to represent path information:
❑ White with Open Eye icon. Path visible to the operating system
❑ Gray with Stop icon. Unconfigured device
❑ White with no icon. No path
2. Select the following, as appropriate, from the Fibre Channel Port
Configuration dialog box:

❑ Configuring, unconfiguring, and inversing the configuration of all device
paths (see section 7.4.1.1)
❑ Configuring individual device paths (see section 7.4.1.2)
❑ Configure LUN masking for this host (see section 7.4.2):
