Monitoring and Managing the Switch
• No response from an attached switch.
• ELP retransmission failure timeout — A switch with a 
hardware or link failure attempted to join the fabric and 
transmitted multiple ELP (exchange link protocol) frames to 
another switch. The failed switch did not receive responses to 
the ELP frames and did not receive an FLOGI frame.
◆ Threshold Alert — If a threshold alert exists for the port, an alert 
indicator (yellow triangle) appears by the Threshold Alert field, 
and the configured name for the last alert received appears in the 
field.
