represents the Brocade Network Advisor SMI Agent model for discovery of a host

attached to AG.

The instance of Brocade_Platform with Dedicated property values as Not dedicated represents
the HBA attached to the AG. This platform instance is shown if the HBA is FDMI-enabled and
the host name is known to Network Advisor. For more details, refer to the

“FC HBA profile”

on

page 50.

If the value of Dedicated property is Gateway of Brocade_AccessGateway, then it represents
the AG.

The association between the SANProtocolEndPoint of switch and AGSANProtocolEndPoint of
AG is Brocade_AGSANActiveConnection. The association between AGSANProtocolEndPoint of
AG and SANProtocolEndPoint of the end device (host) is Brocade_AGSANActiveConnection. The
two associations create a direct association between the SANProtocolEndPoint of the switch
and the SANProtocolEndPoint of the end device (host).

The SANProtocolEndPoint of the switch is associated with the F_Ports of AG, by
Brocade_AGSANProtocolEndPointLogicalIdentity. The F_Port of AG is internally mapped to
N_Ports of AG, which is connected to the switch.
