Explanation
About N Port Identifier Virtualization N port identifier virtualization (NPIV) provides a means to assign multiple FC IDs to a single N port. This feature allows multiple applications on the N port to use different identifiers and allows access control, zoning, and port security to be implemented at the application level. Figure 1-1 shows an ex-ample application using Figure 1-1 NPIV Example You must globally enable NPIV for all VSANs on the MDS switch to allow the NPIV-enabled applica-tions to use multiple N port identifiers. /int/nxos/cli_interfaces/npv.html
