        Send ELS request to specified N_Port_ID w/o requiring a login, and
          wait for ELS response.
        Send CT request to specified N_Port_ID and wait for CT response.
          Login is required, but LLDD is allowed to manage login and decide
          whether it stays in place after the request is satisfied.
        Vendor-Unique request. Allows a LLDD-specific request to be passed
          to the LLDD, and the passing of a response back to the application.
      On an fc_rport basis:
        Send ELS request to nport and wait for ELS response.
        Send CT request to nport and wait for CT response.
