Brocade Access Gateway Administrator's Guide (Supporting Fabric OS v7.3.0) - Manual (Page 36)

• Logins from a device mapped to a specific N_Port or N_Port group (device mapping) always have
priority over unmapped devices that log in to an F_Port that has been mapped to the same
N_Port or N_Port group (port mapping).
• Current device routing (dynamic mapping) may turn out different than your intended mapping
(static mapping), depending on which N_Ports are online and which policies are enabled (for
example, Automatic Port Configuration, Device Load Balancing, Failover, or Failback). Therefore,
it is recommended to map devices to N_Port groups instead of specific N_Ports within a port
group when using device mapping.
NOTE
Automatic Port Configuration and Device Load Balancing cannot be enabled at the same time.
