Displaying TL Port Information
The show tlport command displays the TL port interface configurations. This command provides a list
of all TL ports configured in a switch and shows the associated VSAN, the FC ID for the port (only
domain and area are valid), and the current operational state of the TL port (up or initializing). See
Example 2-17 through Example 2-20.
Example 2-17 Displays the TL Ports in All VSANs
switch# show tlport list

Interface Vsan FC-ID State
------------------------- ------
fc1/16 1 0x420000 Init
fc2/26 1 0x150000 Up
TL ports allow a private device (devices that physically reside on the loop) to see a fabric device and
vice-versa by proxying fabric devices on the loop. Fabric devices are proxied by allocating each fabric
device an ALPA on this loop.
