F7 Initialization

A port is in the non-participating mode and is attempting to win arbitration and 
begin initialization, possibly because the port was reset or is powering up. 
Sometimes the port is sending this sequence to another hot-cascaded switch, like 
a new initiator being inserted in the network.

Change 
Notification

A change notification has been detected and action has been taken.

Unknown

The switch cannot determine what is being transmitted.

Invalid

An invalid transmit word has been detected.

CRC Error

A Frame CRC error has been detected.

Point-to-Point

A point-to-point connection has been detected.
