| Description | The FC-SP mode of this interface.
If off(1), port would never initiate FC-SP
authentication exchange and send reject to any FC-SP
authentication message started from other end.
If autoPassive(2), a port would not initiate any FC-SP
authentication exchange; but would always take part in
FC-SP authentication exchange initiated on this
interface by other devices.
If autoActive(3), a port would always try to initiate
FC-SP authentication exchange after ESC. If otherside
does not support FC-SP authentication, port will
still be brought up. If the authentication fails, the
port will not be brought up.
If on(4), port would always try to initiate FC-SP
authentication exchange and authentication is done
before the port becomes up. If otherside does not
support FC-SP authentication or if authentication
fails, port will not be brought up. |
