7 * AIXLPARServerDescription (ie LPAR-012345:0) breaks out the uniqueness number and port index from the WWPN. There may be difficulty here in determining whether a device is a switch or a NPIV bladecenter for servers; it's not obvious from the WWPNs
18 * If this class matches or describes the given WWN, returns a new instance of this class loaded with the given WWN.
19 *
20 * @return new instance of this class, or null if the given wwn does not match this class
21 * @param strong used to restrict matching to strong-matches only. This is a weak-confidence description, so will return null for strong-only matching
22 * @param brief is used to ask for a shorter description: a more concise nickname or alias
23 * @param wwn the WWN (WWPN or WWNN, but typically WWPN) to match
51 * return a description or alias for this WWN; if brief is set to true during the call to getDesc(), then a shorter description or alias will be returned
52 *
53 * @see getDesc(boolean,boolean,String)
54 *
55 * @return generated alias or nickname for the WWN
62/* for example start with c050760123450010 or c05076:012345:0010 broken apart -- I've noticed that the LPAs in a given frame, perhaps by convention only, have consistent 12 digits (including OUI) and differing last 16 bits that almost appear to be odd/even split amongst fabrics */
