func_areaportal is an e2 available in all 
Source games. It creates an areaportal, used to manage visibility in maps. When the portal is open it stops objects not visible through it from rendering; when the portal is closed it cannot be seen through at all.
These are not really brush entities. They are brush entities from a mapper/Hammer perspective, but by the time they reach the game, the brush is gone and this is, in effect, a point entity.
The entity's brush must be textured with tools\toolsareaportal (seen on the left) for it to function.
Keyvalues
- Name of Linked Door (target) <targetname>
- A prop_door_rotating or func_door whose open/closed state controls the on/off state of the portal. This is optional.

- Initial state of the portal.
- Name (targetname) <string>[ Edit ]
- The name that other entities refer to this entity by, via Inputs/Outputs or other keyvalues (e.g.
