Public Loop Storage Devices Connected to Public Servers
Figure 2-4 shows Public Loop storage devices connected to FL_Ports. The servers
may be able to attach to either F or FL_Ports. If this is the case, use Switch
Management to force the FL_Ports to function as F_Ports. If the servers will only
attach to F_Ports, the ports will “self discover and function as F_Ports. Refer to
“Configure the Ports” on page 2-18.
