Tunneling
Technique for enabling source and destination hosts to communicate when
on same type of network, but connected by a different type of network.
U_Port
Universal Port. Switch port that can operate as G_Port, E_Port, F_Port, or
FL_Port. A port is defined as a U_Port if not connected, or if it has not
assumed a specific function in the fabric.
ULP
Upper Layer Protocol. Protocol that runs on top of fibre channel. Typical
upper layer protocols: SCSI, IP, HIPPI, IPI.
Unicast
Transmission of data from a single source to single destination. See also
Broadcast, Multicast.
Web Tools
Software product that provides a graphical interface for monitoring and
managing individual switches or entire fabrics from standard workstations.
Well-known address
As applies to fibre channel, a logical address stored on the switch and defined
by fibre channel standards as being assigned to a specific function.
WWN
Worldwide name. Identifier that is unique world-wide. Each entity in a fabric
has a separate WWN.
Zone
Set of hosts and devices attached to same fabric and having access
permission, including RSCNs and user data, to each other. Entities inside a
zone are not visible to entities outside the same zone, even if the outside
entities are in another zone.
Zone configuration
A specified set of zones. Enabling a zone configuration enables all zones in
that configuration. See also Defined configuration, Enabled configuration.
Zoning
Software product that allows partitioning of fabric into logical groupings of
devices. See also Zone.
