Example of port index mapping on an FC16-32 blade of a Brocade DCX 8510-8 Backbone
This example shows the truncated output of the switchShow command for an FC16-32 port blade in
slot 1 of a Brocade DCX 8510-8 Backbone. The Address column shows the PID.
switch:FID128:admin> switchshow -slot 1
switchName: DCX8510_8

Example of port index mapping on an FC8-64 blade on a Brocade DCX Backbone.
This example shows the truncated switchShow output for an FC8-64 port blade on the Brocade DCX
Backbone. The assignment of port index numbers to PIDs will vary depending on blade type, platform
type, and slot number.

Example of port indexing on an FC8-64 blade on a Brocade DCX-4S Backbone.
The Brocade DCX-4S does not need a mapping of ports on port blades because it is a one-to-one
mapping. The order is sequential starting at slot 1 port 0 all the way through slot 8 port 255 for the
FC8-64 blade. For core blades, the port index mapping for the blade in slot 3 begins with port index
256, and port index mapping for the core blade in slot 6 begins with port index 736. There are no
shared areas on the Brocade DCX-4S.
The following example switchShow output is from a Brocade DCX-4S. It shows the index and PID
addressing. The output has been truncated.
