fcrProxyDevShow

Displays FC Router proxy device information.
SYNOPSIS
fcrproxydevshow [-a][-f fabricid][-w wwn]
DESCRIPTION
Use this command to display the proxy devices presented by FC Router EX_Ports and information about
the proxy devices. A proxy device is a virtual device presented in to a fabric by an FC Router. A proxy
device represents a real device on another fabric. When a proxy device is created in a fabric, the real
Fibre Channel device is considered to be imported in to this fabric. The presence of a proxy device is
required for inter-fabric device communication. The proxy device appears to the fabric as a real Fibre
Channel device. It has a name server entry and is assigned a valid port ID.
Proxy device information is available only for proxy devices that are presented by FC Routers on the
same backbone fabric as this FC Router.
The default output displays only proxy device information relevant to this FC Router. Relevant proxy
devices include proxy devices created by this FC Router (devices imported by this FC Router).
The proxy devices are listed by fabric. Search parameters -f and -w allow searching for proxy devices
based on fabric ID or port WWN.
"No proxy device found" is displayed if there is no proxy device information available on this FC Router.
This command displays the following information:
Proxy Created in Fabric
WWN
Proxy PID
Device Exists in Fabric
Physical PID
State
