■ Reason—When the port operating state is Segmented E_Port, Invalid
Attachment, or Inactive, this field displays the reason for that state. When an
E_Port is segmented, two fabrics are prevented from joining. This only occurs
when the switch is connected to another switch.
The following messages display in the Reason field of the Port Properties
dialog box if an Invalid Attachment, Segmented E_Port, or Inactive state
occurs for the port:
Invalid Attachment Messages:
— 01 Unknown . The reason is not known.
— 02 ISL connection not allowed on this port . ISL is
connected to a port configured as an F_Port.
— 03 ELP rejected by the attached switch . This switch
transmitted an exchange link protocol (ELP) frame that was rejected by
the switch at the other end of the ISL
