Chapter 13 Configuring Interfaces TL Ports for Private Loops Send documentation comments to [email protected] The show tlport command displays the TL port interface configurations. This command provides a list of all TL ports configured in a switch and shows the associated VSAN, the FC ID for the port (only domain and area are valid), and the current operational state of the TL port (up or initializing). See Example 13-17 through Example 13-20. Example 13-17 Displays the TL Ports in All VSANs switch# show tlport list Interface Vsan FC-ID State fc1/16 1 0x420000 Init fc2/26 1 0x150000 Up TL ports allow a private device (devices that physically reside on the loop) to see a fabric device and vice-versa by proxying fabric devices on the loop. Fabric devices are proxied by allocating each fabric device an ALPA on this loop. In addition to these proxied devices, other virtual devices (local or remote domain controller addresses) are also allocated ALPAs on the loop. A switch reserves the ALPA for its own communication with private devices, and the switch acts as a SCSI initiator. The first column in the output of the show tlport interface command is the ALPA identity of the device on the loop. The columns that follow include the port WWNs, the node WWNs for each device, the device as a SCSI initiator or target, and the real FC ID of the device.
