(logical)
Indicates a logical port. The switchShow output shows all logical ports currently
present in the logical switch. The command displays -1 for the slot for logical ports
and the user port number for slot port. The logical port numbers are not persistent
and may change when the logical interswitch links (LISLs) are deleted and
recreated. A logical port is shown to be in one of the following states: E_Port (if
the port is online), offline, or disabled. When the port is disabled, a reason is
provided.
segmented
Indicates a segmented or disabled port along with one of the following
segmentation reasons:
(Encrypt incompatible)
Port segmentation or port disable due to mismatched configurations.
(Compress incompatible)
Port segmentation or port disable due to mismatched configurations.
(Encrypt limitation)
Port segmentation or port disable due to reaching encryption limitations.
(Compress limitation)
Port segmentation or port disable due to reaching compression limitations.
(Authentication failure)
Port segmentation or port disable due to authentication failure.
(Type mismatch)
D_Port configuration mismatch between local and remote switch.
When used with the -slot option, the command displays the following blade-specific information:
slot
Slot number.
Blade Type
Type of blade, for example, Core blade or AP blade. Refer to the slotShow
command for a listing of supported blade types.
ID
A numeric blade ID that specifies the blade type. Refer to the slotShow command
for a listing of supported blade IDs.

NOTES
The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in
place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for
details.
On the Brocade 8000, the Proto column identifies the FCoE ports of the switch. For all FCoE ports, the
speed is 10 Gbps. The default configuration of an FCoE port is an F_Port configuration. After a
successful reboot
switchShow displays all FCoE ports as online. For each FCoE port, the FCoE
controller WWN is shown. FCoE ports are not configurable with the Fabric OS port commands. Use the
FCoE commands instead.
If a port is configured as a long distance port, the long distance level is displayed in the format of L x ,
where x represents the long distance level number. See portCfgLongDistance for the level description.
When a port is configured as an N_Port and is online, switchShow displays its type as an N_Port. Also,
switchShow displays the WWN of the border switch attached to this N_Port as a 24-bit Port Identifier
assigned to this port by the enterprise fabric.
In an AD context, if one of the L_Ports or NPIV Ports is a part of the current AD, the complete device
information attached to the port is displayed.
