2 FX8-24 blade hardware overview FX8-24 blade hardware overview Figure 3 shows the FC ports, GbE port, and 10GbE ports on the FX8-24 blade. There are twelve FC ports, numbered 0 through 11. The FC ports can operate at 1, 2, 4, or 8 Gbps. There are ten GbE ports, numbered 0 through 9. Ports XGE0 and XGE1 are 10GbE ports. The FX8-24 blade provides a maximum of 20 Gbps of bandwidth for connections, and can operate in one of three different modes: • 1 Gbps mode - you can use all ten GbE ports (0 through 9). Both XGE ports are disabled. • 10 Gbps mode - you can use the XGE0 and XGE1 ports. • Dual mode - you can use GbE ports 0 through 9, and port XGE0. The FX8-24 blade may be deployed in either a DCX or a DCX-4S chassis. Four FX8-24 blades are allowed per chassis. ATTENTION If you configure an FX8-24 in a DCX or DCX-4S slot and decide to relocate the blade and its IP addresses to another slot within the same chassis, the IP addresses assigned to the original slot need to be deleted using the portcfg ipif delete command before the blade is moved to the new slot. If this is not done, you must return the FX8-24 blade to the original slot and delete the IP addresses. 8 Fabric OS FCIP Administrator's Guide 53-1001766-01

FX8-24 blade hardware overview
Figure 3
shows the FC ports, GbE port, and 10GbE ports on the FX8-24 blade. There are twelve FC
ports, numbered 0 through 11. The FC ports can operate at 1, 2, 4, or 8 Gbps. There are ten GbE
ports, numbered 0 through 9. Ports XGE0 and XGE1 are 10GbE ports.
The FX8-24 blade provides a maximum of 20 Gbps of bandwidth for connections, and can operate
in one of three different modes:
•
1 Gbps mode - you can use all ten GbE ports (0 through 9). Both XGE ports are disabled.
•
10 Gbps mode - you can use the XGE0 and XGE1 ports.
•
Dual mode - you can use GbE ports 0 through 9, and port XGE0.
The FX8-24 blade may be deployed in either a DCX or a DCX-4S chassis. Four FX8-24 blades are
allowed per chassis.
ATTENTION
If you configure an FX8-24 in a DCX or DCX-4S slot and decide to relocate the blade and its IP
addresses to another slot within the same chassis, the IP addresses assigned to the original slot
need to be deleted using the
portcfg ipif delete
command before the blade is moved to the new slot.
If this is not done, you must return the FX8-24 blade to the original slot and delete the IP addresses.
