FIGURE 42 Topology for discovering only edge fabrics
• Phantom switch instances are associated to the Brocade_Fabric instance.
• Imported device instances of Brocade_NodeFCPort are associated to the Brocade_Fabric
instance.
• No instances of Brocade_SwitchFCPort exist for phantom ports.
• No instances of Brocade_SANActiveConnection exist to show the topology of ISLs between
the real edge port and the phantom switches or for the imported devices.
• The PreferredDomainID value for phantom switches can be modified only if the associated
backbone fabric is managed through Brocade Network Advisor.
