Abstract
An example implementation may relate to a storage area network (SAN) switch and a SAN target device. For example, the SAN target device may issue an in-band diagnostic command to the SAN switch. The SAN target device may receive an in-band data message from the SAN switch in response to the in-band diagnostic command. The in-band data message may include diagnostic data about a port of the storage area network switch and a storage area network device connected to the port.
