Viewing NPIV port configuration information

Viewing NPIV port configuration information

1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role.

2. Enter the portCfgShow command to view the switch ports information.

The following example shows whether a port is configured for NPIV:

switch:admin> portcfgshow

3. Use the switchShow and portShow commands to view NPIV information for a given port. If a

port is an F_Port, and you enter the switchShow command, then the port WWN of the N_Port is
returned. For an NPIV F_Port, there are multiple N_Ports, each with a different port WWN. The
switchShow command output indicates whether or not a port is an NPIV F_Port, and identifies
the number of virtual N_Ports behind it. The following example is sample output from the
switchShow command:

switch:admin> switchshow
switchName:switch
switchType:66.1
switchState:Online
switchMode:Native
switchRole:Principal
switchDomain:1
switchId:fffc01

4. Use the portShow command to view the NPIV attributes and all the N_Port (physical and

virtual) port WWNs that are listed under portWwn of device(s) connected. The following
example is sample output for the portShow command:
