Getting technical help

Contact your switch support supplier for hardware, firmware, and software support, including
product repairs and part ordering. To expedite your call, have the following information available:

1. General Information

Switch model

Switch operating system version

Software name and software version, if applicable

Error numbers and messages received

supportSave command output

Detailed description of the problem, including the switch or fabric behavior immediately
following the problem, and specific questions

Description of any troubleshooting steps already performed and the results

Serial console and Telnet session logs

syslog message logs

2. Switch Serial Number

The switch serial number and corresponding bar code are provided on the serial number
label, as illustrated below.

3. World Wide Name (WWN)

Use the licenseIdShow command to display the WWN of the chassis.

If you cannot use the licenseIdShow command because the switch is inoperable, you can
get the WWN from the same place as the serial number, except for the Brocade DCX. For
the Brocade DCX, access the numbers on the WWN cards by removing the Brocade logo
plate at the top of the non-port side of the chassis.
