A Logical Interface (LIF) has either an IP address or World Wide Port Name (WWPN). If it’s being used for our NAS protocols like CIFS and NFS, or the SAN protocol iSCSI, it will be represented by an IP address. If it's being used for Fibre Channel (FC) or Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), it will be represented by a WWPN.
Activities
Create a LIF in NetAPP ONTAP
In NetAPP srrays NFS, CIFS, and FlexCache are available by default when you create a LIF.[1]
