Port Ports are access points in a device where a link

attaches. There are four types of ports, as follows:

N_Port is a Fibre Channel device port that supports

point-to-point topology.

NL_Port is a Fibre Channel device port that supports

loop topology.

F_Port is a port in a fabric where an N_Port can attach.

FL_Port is a port in a fabric where an NL_Port can

attach.

SAN SAN stands for storage area network, which consists

of multiple storage units and servers connected by

networking topology.

SCSI SCSI stands for small computer system interface. The

original SCSI specification was a hardware bus

specification and a packet-oriented protocol

specification for communicating on that bus. SCSI over

Fibre Channel uses the packet-oriented protocol to

communicate with storage devices on the Fibre

Channel.

SPIFFI SPIFFI stands for specification for

platform-independent failover and failback integration.

It is a cooperative effort that defines a

nonvendor-specific failover mechanism.
