21.5 Public Loop Operation
The drive is designed to perform as a Public NL_Port described in the FLA 2.70 profile.
The drive will:
• tolerate unfairness of a FL_Port
• support 24bit addressing
• accept FAN extended link service
• perform FLOGI to Fabric F_Port (AL_PA = 00h, well known address 0FFFFFEh)
• perform registration to a simple name server (AL_PA = 00h, well known address 0FFFFFCh) using RFC-4 service.
• claim a fabric-assigned AL_PA during LIP in the LIFA sequence
• receive frames from a FL_Port for more than one S_ID in a single loop tenancy
• open L_Port at AL_PA = 00h and send frames to remote port
• use values of E_D_TOV, R_A_TOV as specified by the fabric in FLOGI ACC
Frame Received No PLOGI PLOGI but no PRLI
