Trunking in Access Gateway mode 3 TABLE 8 Category Access Gateway trunking considerations for the Edge switch Description DCC Policy D.I. Zoning (D,I) AD (D, I) DCC and (PWWN, I) DCC DCC policy enforcement for the F_Port trunk is based on the Trunk Area; the FDISC requests to a trunk port is accepted only if the WWN of the attached device is part of the DCC policy against the TA. The PWWN of the FLOGI sent from the AG will be dynamic for the F_Port trunk master. Because you do not know ahead of time what PWWN AG will use, the PWWN of the FLOGI will not go through DCC policy check on an F_Port trunk master. However, the PWWN of the FDISC will continue to go through DCC policy check. Creating a Trunk Area may remove the Index ("I") from the switch to be grouped to the Trunk Area. All ports in a Trunk Area share the same "I". This means that Domain,Index (D,I), which refer to an "I", that might have been removed, will no longer be part of the switch. Note: Ensure to include AD, zoning and DCC when creating a Trunk Area. You can remove the port from the Trunk Area to have the "I" back into effect. D,I will behave as normal, but you may see the effects of grouping ports into a single "I". Also, D,I continues to work for Trunk Area groups. The "I" can be used in D,I if the "I" was the "I" for the Trunk Area group. Two masters QoS Note: "I" refers to Index and D,I refers to Domain,Index. Two masters is not supported in the same F_Port trunk group. Supported. The following table describes the PWWN format for F_Port and N_Port trunk ports. TABLE 9 PWWN format for F_Port and N_Port trunk ports NAA = 2 2f:xx:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn (1) Port WWNs for: switch's FX_Ports. The valid range of xx is [0 - FF], for maximum of 256. NAA = 2 25:xx:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn (1) Port WWNs for: switch's FX_Ports The valid range of xx is [0 - FF], for maximum of 256. 3. Configure the trunk on the Edge switch by assigning the Trunk Area (TA) using procedures under "Assigning a Trunk Area" on page 39. 4. Enable F_Port trunking.
