Loop ID to AL_PA Mapping
During the Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) initialization process, a unique
Arbitrated Loop Physical Address (AL_PA) value is assigned to each port on the loop. Not
all of the 256 hex values are allowed as AL_PA values per FC-AL, so Loop IDs are used
to represent the 125 addresses that the router can use. You can assign a Loop ID to the
router. See
Configuring the FC Host Channels on page 3-12
