DESCRIPTION
Use this command to create and manage fabric-assigned port world wide names (FA-PPWWNs) for
Dynamic Fabric Provisioning (DFP). A FA-PWWN is a "virtual" port WWN that will bind to a device port
and can be later assigned to a physical device. A FA-PWWN can be either user-generated or
automatically assigned by the fabric. The automatically assigned FA-PWWN is created by default when
you enable the feature without explicitly providing a VPWWN. With FA-PWWNs assigned to FC ports or
Access Gateway (AG) ports, you can provision the ports in advance with zoning configurations, access
control, or Ports on Demand assignments, and you can easily move servers across ports or Access
Gateways by way of reassigning the FA-PWWN to another port.
The fapwwn command supports the following management tasks:
