Excluding traffic between an HBA and a port from the monitoring target: many-to-many connections

Up to 32 host bus adapters (WWNs) can be monitored for one port. If more than 32 host bus
adapters are connected to one port, the traffic statistics for all host bus adapters cannot be
monitored. Consider the intended use of each host, and move the host bus adapters that do not
need to be monitored to Non-Monitor.
