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 13-17

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.
In addition to these proxied devices, other virtual devices (local or remote domain controller addresses)
are also allocated ALPAs on the loop. A switch reserves the ALPA for its own communication with
private devices, and the switch acts as a SCSI initiator.
The first column in the output of the show tlport interface command is the ALPA identity of the device
on the loop. The columns that follow include the port WWNs, the node WWNs for each device, the
device as a SCSI initiator or target, and the real FC ID of the device.
