The Brocade_SwitchFCPortCapabilities class has two propertites, NPIVSupported and
MaxNPIVLogins.
-
The NPIVSupported property indicates the NPIV support for the FC port.
-
The MaxNPIVLogins property indicates the maximum number of NPIV logins supported on
the FC port. The value of MaxNPIVLogins is always set to 32.
The end device is represented as the instance of Brocade_Platform. The value of the property
Dedicated is Not Dedicated representing the HBA. The LogicalPortGroup instance is
represented as Brocade_Node and it is associated with Brocade_Platform by
Brocade_NodeInPlatform.
All the ports in end devices are represented as Brocade_NodeFCPort and it associates with
Brocade_Node by Brocade_PortInNode.
The virtualized ports associate with real ports of the end device using the
Brocade_NodeFCPortDependency association. The Brocade_NodeFCport is also associated
with the Brocade_Platform by Brocade_NodePortInPlatform.
The platform instance for the HBA is shown if the HBA is FDMI-enabled.
SANProtocolEndPoint of the switch is associated with the SANProtocolEndPoint of the end
device as Brocade_SANActiveConnection. There is a direct association between the switch and
the virtualized port of the end devices through Brocade_SANActiveConnection. Therefore, the
number of F_Port to N_Port connections is equal to the sum of virtualized ports and real port
of the end device.
