NPIV N_Port ID Virtualization or NPIV is a Fibre Channel facility allowing multiple N_Port IDs to share

a single physical N_Port. This allows multiple Fibre Channel initiators to occupy a single physical

port, easing hardware requirements in Storage area network design, especially where virtual

SANs are called for.
