| Description | The value that Fibre Channel calls an 'IP Address (Port)'
that represents the IP address of the associated port.
The value is either in 32-bit IPv4 format or 128-bit IPv6
format, in network-byte order. When this object contains an
IPv4 address, the leftmost 96 bits (12 bytes) should contain
x'00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 FF FF'. The IPv4 address
should be present in the rightmost 32 bits.
Note that the value of this object is the IP address value
that is received in the FC-GS-4 message Register IP address
(Port) RIPP_ID. It is not validated against any IP address
format.
If no 'IP address (Port)' has been registered, then the
value of this object is the zero-length string. |
