The Physical State column shows the actual state of the HBA ports.
The Configuration Type column shows the port mode that a user has specified. The default port type configuration is shown if the user has not changed it.
When you enable an FC feature, the port that has been marked as a target port for that feature then enters the target mode. Before the enabling operation, the port stays in the standard initiator mode, and it shows an actual physical state of Initiator.
By comparing the Configuration Type and the Physical State columns, you can know if a related FC feature is enabled.
