Collecting port data 3 Collecting port data This section provides an overview of BCU commands and HCM features that provide information on adapter ports. such as PWWN, node WWN, port type, configured speed, operating speed, configured topology, operating topology. link and port beaconing state, and other information. Displaying port properties Use the port Properties tab to display information about a selected base adapter port, such as the following: • Port number • PWWN and node WWN • Factory PWWN and node WWN • Port type (CNA or HBA) • Media type (for example "mezz" for mezzanine) • Current FCoE and factory MAC address (CNAs Fabric Adapter ports configured in CNA mode) • Offline or online state • Role of port (for example, FCP initiator) • Fibre Channel address (HBAs and Fabric Adapter ports configured in HBA mode) • WWN of the attached switch • Operating topology (for example, point-to-point) • Receive and transmit BB_Credits NOTE "Mezz" for the media type indicates "mezzanine." The "Pre-Boot" identification for certain properties means that the property was configured using a blade system management application. Use the following steps to display base port properties. 1. From the device tree, select a base port. 2. Click the Base Port Properties tab in the right pane. Displaying DCB port properties (CNA) Use the DCB Port Properties panel to display information for a selected DCB adapter port on a CNA or Fabric Adapter with a port configured in CNA mode. Information such as the following displays: • DCB status • FCoE logical link status • DCBCXP version • Network priority configuration • Network priority group ID • Bandwidth percentage for given port group • Priority flow control status Brocade Adapters Troubleshooting Guide 99 53-1002145-01

Collecting port data
This section provides an overview of BCU commands and HCM features that provide information on
adapter ports. such as PWWN, node WWN, port type, configured speed, operating speed,
configured topology, operating topology. link and port beaconing state, and other information.
Displaying port properties
Use the port
Properties
tab to display information about a selected base adapter port, such as the
following:
Port number
PWWN and node WWN
Factory PWWN and node WWN
Port type (CNA or HBA)
Media type (for example “mezz” for mezzanine)
Current FCoE and factory MAC address (CNAs Fabric Adapter ports configured in CNA mode)
Offline or online state
Role of port (for example, FCP initiator)
Fibre Channel address (HBAs and Fabric Adapter ports configured in HBA mode)
WWN of the attached switch
Operating topology (for example, point-to-point)
Receive and transmit BB_Credits
NOTE
“Mezz” for the media type indicates “mezzanine.” The “Pre-Boot” identification for certain properties
means that the property was configured using a blade system management application.
Use the following steps to display base port properties.
1.
From the device tree, select a base port.
2.
Click the
Base Port Propertie
s tab in the right pane.
Displaying DCB port properties (CNA)
Use the
DCB Port Properties
panel to display information for a selected DCB adapter port on a CNA
or Fabric Adapter with a port configured in CNA mode.
Information such as the following displays:
DCB status
FCoE logical link status
DCBCXP version
Network priority configuration
Network priority group ID
Bandwidth percentage for given port group
Priority flow control status
