• Advanced port statistics
• Error details
• FCIP Tunnels—GbE ports and logical FCIP ports only (not available for the FR4-16IP)
Controllable ports
All ports have a “Controllable” attribute visible from the Advanced Mode, which represents a
combination of the RBAC and Admin Domain permissions. Figure 43 shows the Controllable
attribute.
The Controllable attribute is No in the following situations:
• If your account has read-only permission, all accessible ports display in read-only mode,
regardless of the Admin Domain context. All configuration functionality is disabled.
• Non-owned E_Ports and indirect member ports on non-owned switches are accessible in read-
only mode and are not controllable, regardless of RBAC permissions.
The Controllable attribute is Yes for ports that are directly owned by the current Admin Domain and
for all ports on switches that are owned by the current Admin Domain, if your role gives you Modify
permission for ports. If a port is controllable, all configuration functionality is enabled.
Ports on a non-owned switch that are not E_Ports and are neither direct nor indirect members of
the current Admin Domain are inaccessible and are not displayed in the Port Administration
window.
