4.2.1. Verifying Local Ports
Once connected to the switch, use the following command to see if the FIP has gone through
and a VN_Port MAC address has been assigned.
Verify if all the FCoE ports are online/ready and a successful FIP has taken place using the
following command. The wwpn and state of the initiator local port can be found under sysfs.
[root@host]# cat /sys/class/fc_host/hostX/port_name
Alternatively, the local port information can also be found using:
[root@host]# cxgbtool stor –a <adapter_no> --show-lnode
The hosts under fc_host depends on the number of ports on the adapter
used.
Inorder to identify chelsio fc_host from other vendor fc_host, the WWPN
always begins with 0x5000743
