The comments that follow each section of output explain the meaning of the output.
If the device logs in successfully, proceed to the next step. Otherwise, you may have a problem with the
device or its associated software.
Step 6 From interface mode, shut down the FC interface and issue a no shutdown after turning on the debug
described in the following steps.
Step 7 To watch the FLOGI process take place, enter the following command:
switch# debug fcns events register vsan 99
This command enables debug mode for nameserver registration. The system output looks like this:
switch# conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
switch(config)# int fc3/14
switch(config-if)# no shut /* enable the port */
switch(config-if)# Feb 17 04:42:54 fcns: vsan 99: Created entry for port-id 27800
