Parameters

vsan vsan-id: Specifies a VSAN by its ID in the range of 1 to 3839. If you do not specify a VSAN, this command displays information about uplink and downlink interfaces in all VSANs. On an FCF-NPV switch, this command displays the status information of only VSANs operating in NPV mode.

Usage guidelines

Only NPV and FCF-NPV switches support this command.

Information about uplink and downlink interfaces includes VSAN tagging mode, interface state, and FC address.

Examples

# Display information about uplink and downlink interfaces in VSAN 1.

Table 36: Command output

Field	Description
External Interfaces	List of uplink interfaces.
Server Interfaces	List of downlink interfaces.
Interface	Interface name.
State	State of the interface: Up or Down.
FCID	After an uplink interface goes up, the FC ID allocated by the core switch is displayed. A downlink interface does not have an FC ID. One uplink interface can be up but it cannot work as an uplink interface when the following conditions exist: An NPV switch is connected to two fabrics. The two uplink interfaces of the NPV switch are assigned the same FC ID in a VSAN. In this case, Unavailable in parentheses is displayed after the FCID field. NOTE: Multiple fabrics can exist in an FC SAN. For example, in an FC SAN, if two FCF switches are not interconnected, each FCF switch forms a fabric.
