A widely implemented local area network (LAN) protocol that uses a

LAN allows multiple station access to the transmission medium at
will without prior coordination and which avoids or resolves
contention.
A device used to connect the EFC Server and the switches it manages.
A numeric code that displays in the event log. This code provides
information on system failures, such as hardware failures, failure
locations, or general information on normal system events.
Record of significant events that have occurred on the switch, such as
FRU failures, degraded operation, and port problems.
Physical interface on a Fibre Channel switch within a fabric that
attaches to an expansion port (E_Port) on another Fibre Channel
switch to form a multiswitch fabric. See also segmented E_Port.
Data field size, supported by an F-Port, that is agreed upon during
