DANGER

For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 megohm resistor.

Specifying a port address

You can specify a port address for a data port or a management port.

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

Management modules

The FSX 800 and FSX 1600 device each require one management module and optionally support two
management modules for 100% redundancy. Each management module occupies one half slot.

FSX 800 and FSX 1600 management modules

Management modules for the FSX 800 and FSX 1600 are interchangeable between devices. Standard
management modules provide Layer 2 and base Layer 3 functionality only. Premium management
modules support full Layer 3 functionality.
