Specifying a data port
The port address format is stack unit/slot/port, where:
•
stack unit
--Specifies the stack unit ID. Range is from 1 to 8. If the device is not part of a stack, the
stack unit ID is 1.
•
slot
--Specifies the slot number. Can be 1 or 3.
•
port
--Specifies the port number in the slot. Range is from 1 to 24 (24-port models) or 1 to 48 (48-port
models).
This example shows how to specify port 2 in slot 1 of a device that is not part of a stack:
Brocade (config) # interface ethernet 1/1/2
Specifying a stacking port
The port address format is stack unit/slot/port, where:
•
stack unit
--Specifies the stack unit ID. Range is from 1 to 8.
•
slot
--Specifies the slot number. Default stacking ports are in slot 2 (FCX S/S-F) and slot3 (FCX E/I).
•
port
--Specifies the port number in the slot. Default stacking ports in slot 2 and slot 3 are ports 1 and
2.
This example shows how to specify port 2 in slot 2 of unit 3 in a stack:
Brocade (config) # interface ethernet 3/2/2
Specifying a management port
The management port number is always 1. This example shows how to specify the management port:
Brocade (config) # interface management 1
FSX
Specifying a data port
The port address format is slot/port, where:
•
slot
--Specifies the interface slot number. Range is from 1 to 8 (FSX 800) or 1 to 16 (FSX 1600).
•
port
--Specifies the port number in the slot. Range is from 1 to 48 depending on the interface module.
This example shows how to specify port 2 in slot 1:
Brocade (config) # interface ethernet 1/2
Specifying a management port
The management port number is always 1. This example shows how to specify the management port:
Brocade (config) # interface management 1
