10 Diagnostic Port (D_Port) FIGURE 5 ICLs connecting chassis blades For configuration details see "Using D_Port without HBAs" on page 95. Topology 3: Access Gateways Figure 6 illustrates a switch configured as a single Access Gateway connected to a fabric switch. N and F represent, respectively, an N_Port and an F_Port to be configured as D_Ports. (See note below.) The following equipment is supported, in any mix-or-match combination: • Access Gateways: Brocade 6505, 6510 • Switches: Brocade DCX 8510-4, DCX 8510-8, 6505, 6510, 6520 FIGURE 6 Single Access Gateway to switch Figure 7 illustrates multiple Access Gateways connected to a switch in a cascaded topology. N and F represent, respectively, an N_Port and an F_Port to be configured as D_Ports. (See note below.) There is no D_Port support for HBA connectivity to the Access Gateway. The following equipment is supported, in any mix-or-match combination: • Access Gateways: Brocade 6505, 6510 • Switches: Brocade DCX 8510-4, DCX 8510-8, 6505, 6510, 6520 FIGURE 7 Multiple Access Gateways cascaded to switch For configuration details see "Using D_Port without HBAs" on page 95. NOTE You cannot configure a D_Port in the above topologies if N_Port-to-F_Port mappings are already present on the Access Gateway.

“Using D_Port without HBAs”
on page 95.
Topology 3: Access Gateways
Figure 6
illustrates a switch configured as a single Access Gateway connected to a fabric switch.
N
and
F
represent, respectively, an N_Port and an F_Port to be configured as D_Ports. (See note
below.) The following equipment is supported, in any mix-or-match combination:
•
Access Gateways
: Brocade 6505, 6510
•
Switches
: Brocade DCX 8510-4, DCX 8510-8, 6505, 6510, 6520
FIGURE 6
Single Access Gateway to switch
Figure 7
illustrates multiple Access Gateways connected to a switch in a cascaded topology.
N
and
F
represent, respectively, an N_Port and an F_Port to be configured as D_Ports. (See note below.)
There is no D_Port support for HBA connectivity to the Access Gateway. The following equipment is
supported, in any mix-or-match combination:
•
Access Gateways
: Brocade 6505, 6510
•
Switches
: Brocade DCX 8510-4, DCX 8510-8, 6505, 6510, 6520
FIGURE 7
Multiple Access Gateways cascaded to switch
For configuration details see
“Using D_Port without HBAs”
on page 95.
NOTE
You cannot configure a D_Port in the above topologies if N_Port-to-F_Port mappings are already
present on the Access Gateway. See
“Saving port mappings on an Access Gateway”
on page 97.
