Port Index Availability Chapter 1 Product Overview Send documentation comments to [email protected]. Table 1-9 Port Index Requirements Supervisor Supervisor-1 Supervisor-2 Module Generation 1 Generation 2 Generation 1 Generation 2 Port Index Requirements Indexes must be: • Contiguous • In the range assigned to the given slot • Start with the lowest value assigned to that slot Maximum 252 assignable port indexes available, Indexes can be any available number in the range 0-252. Indexes must be contiguous, but can be any available contiguous block in the range 0-252. Indexes can be any available number in the range 0-1020 if all modules are Generation 2 modules. Otherwise, indexes can be any available number in the range 0-252. Table 1-10 shows a valid sample configuration for maximum capacity within the port index limits. The table lists a mixture of Generation 1 and Generation 2 modules on a Cisco MDS 9509 Director.

The table lists a mixture of Generation 1 storage IPS modules and Generation 2 modules on a Cisco MDS 9509 Director. In this example, one of the modules installed will not boot up because the number of port indexes needed has been exceeded. 1-30 Cisco MDS 9500 Series Hardware Installation Guide OL-17467-02
