for events detected by the affected Nx_Port.

-t Displays the device type. Of the two device type parts, the first part indicates
the origination of the device. Currently, four originations are defined:
Physical - Device connected to the Nx_Port, using FLOGI to login to the
switch.
Virtual - Device contrived by the switch.
NPV - Device connected to the Nx_Port, using FDISC to log in to the
switch.
iSCSI - Device connected to the iSCSI port.
The second part indicates the role of the device. Currently, four roles are
defined:
Unknown (initiator/target) - Device role is not detected
Initiator - An iSCSI initiator.
Target - An iSCSI target.
Initiator+Target - Both an iSCSI initiator and an iSCSI target.
Fabric OS v4.2.x or earlier does not include device type information. After a nondisruptive upgrade
from those Fabric OS versions, the device type displays as “Physical Unknown(initiator/target)”.
