Reason: The ports need to be enabled for communication.

Check Cable Connections:

Step: Ensure that the FC cables are properly connected to the switch.

Reason: Loose or disconnected cables can cause the ports to appear down.

Reason: Incorrect zoning can prevent the devices from communicating, causing the ports to appear down.
