Info

Frame Data unit consisting of a start-of-frame (SOF) delimiter, header, data payload, CRC, and an end-of-frame (EOF) delimiter. Hard Zone Hard zoning divides the fabric for purposes of controlling discovery and inbound traffic. Inactive Firmware The firmware image on the switch that is not in use. In-band Management The ability to manage a switch through another switch over an inter-switch link. Initiator The device that initiates a data exchange with a target device. Inter-Switch Link The connection between two switches using E_Ports. LIP Loop Initialization Primitive sequence Logged-in LED A port LED that indicates device login or loop initialization status. Management Information Base A set of guidelines and definitions for SNMP functions. Management Workstation PC workstation that manages the fabric through the fabric management switch. Mesh Topology A fabric in which each chassis has at least one port directly connected to each other chassis in the fabric. MIB Management Information Base Multistage Topology A fabric in which two or more edge switches connect to one or more core switches. NL_Port Node Loop Port. A Fibre Channel device port that supports arbitrated loop protocol. N_Port Node Port. A Fibre Channel device port in a point-to-point or fabric connection. OK LED A switch LED that indicates that the switch logic circuitry is receiving proper DC voltages. Orphan Zone Set Zones that are currently not in a zone set are considered to be part of the orphan zone set. The orphan zone set is not an actual zone set, but rather a way of displaying the zones that are not currently in a zone set. Pending Firmware The firmware image that will be activated upon the next switch reset. POST Power On Self Test Power On Self Test (POST) Diagnostics that the switch chassis performs at start up. Principal Switch The switch in the fabric that manages domain ID assignments. QuickTools Switch management web applet. SFP Small Form-Factor Pluggable. Small Form-Factor Pluggable A transceiver device, smaller than a GigaBit Interface Converter, that plugs into the Fibre Channel port. SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol Soft Zone Soft zoning divides the fabric for purposes of controlling discovery. Members of the same soft zone automatically discover and communicate freely with all other members of the same zone. Switch Fault LED A switch LED that indicates the status of the internal switch processor and the results of the Power On Self Test. 106 IBM Flex System FC3171 8 Gb SAN Switch QuickTools User’s Guide
Target A storage device that responds to an initiator device. User Account An object stored on a switch that consists of an account name, password, authority level, and expiration date. VCCI Voluntary Control Council for Interference World Wide Name (WWN) A unique 64-bit address assigned to a device by the device manufacturer. WWN World Wide Name Zone A set of ports or devices grouped together to control the exchange of information. Zone Set A set of zones grouped together. The active zone set defines the zoning for a fabric. Zoning Database The set of zone sets, zones, and aliases stored on a switch. Glossary 107
