permitted with up to eight ports per group. trunking groups are as follows: 0-7,
8-15, 16-23, 24-31, 32-39, 40-47, 48-55, and 56-63*. (* - Octet 56-63 E-port trunks
for the SAN768B-2 are permitted on the logical or base switch only)

FX8-24 FCIP extension blade - The port numbering scheme is fairly complex for
this blade, but is displayed for reference on the blade itself in a diagram towards
the lower end of the blade. (See Figure 43 on page 142 for a description and
illustration of the port layout.) There are twenty-four physical ports. Twelve FC
ports are located towards the lower end of the blade, with ports 0 through 5 on
the left side, and ports 6 through 11 on the right side. Two 10 Gigabit Ethernet
(10GbE or XGE) ports are located in the middle of the blade on the left side, and
are numbered 0 and 1, from bottom to top. Ten GbE ports are located towards
the top of the blade, with eight clustered at the top, and the remaining two
located to the right of the two 10GbE ports. The GbE ports 0 through 3,
numbered from bottom to top are located on the left side at the top of the blade.
Ports 4 and 5 are located above the two 10GbE ports, and ports 6 through 9
(numbered bottom to top) are at the top on the right side, to the right of ports 0
through 3. Up to three FC trunking groups. The three groups are defined as:
– Trunk group 0: FC ports 0, 1
– Trunk group 1: FC ports 6, 7
– Trunk group 2: FC ports 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11
Chassis slots
Slots are numbered 1 through 12, from left to right when facing the port side of the
SAN768B-2. Control processor blades (CP8) can be installed only in slots 6 and 7.
Core switch blades (CR16-8) can be installed only in slots 5 and 8. Port or
application blades can be installed in slots 1–4 and 9–12. Unused slots must be
filled with blade filler panels to maintain adequate cooling.
See Appendix D, “Blade port numbering,” on page 139 for port numbering details
of the SAN768B-2 port blades. Also refer to the IBM Redbook,
Implementing an
IBM/Brocade SAN with 8 Gbps Directors and Switches , SG24-6116, for more
comprehensive information on port numbering and area port numbering, and
other technical information. This publication is available through

Note: This publication was written for earlier products, but many of the
procedures still apply.
Cable organization
The cable management comb (
5
in Figure 1 on page 4) is attached to the chassis
under the chassis door and allows for simple cable management. The comb can be
installed without service disruption.
Attention: Do not use tie wraps with optical cables because they are easily
overtightened and can damage the optic fibers.
Cables can be organized and managed in a variety of ways, for example, using
cable channels on the sides of the cabinet or patch panels to minimize cable
management. Following is a list of recommendations:
