SOLIDWORKS Design & Help

How does this given 3/2 solenoid direction valve works?

I am somewhat good with concept of 3/2 (basic) directional valve, but I am very confused with this solenoid value- where should be the input and output. I don't see the ports in and out. Can you help me how this part works (https://www.mcmaster.com/1643N34/) and also this link will have 3D model.

It is made for a specific use; the ports are an opening at the lower end and the little radial holes separated by gaskets. The attached datasheet shows the details better.
