Page 92 highlights

3 Considerations for the Brocade 6505 and 6510 • The following commands have restricted usage, mostly because the Brocade 8000 contains only eight Fibre Channel ports and does not support the Automatic Port Configuration policy: - ag --pgcreate - ag --policyenable - ag --policydisable - portcfgdefault • To enable or disable FCoE ports, use fcoe --enable and fcoe --disable instead of portdisable and portenable. • The portcfgdefault command resets the degraded state and NPIV PerPort and clears the BufferLimitedMode on a port. For other AG platforms, this command restores the port configuration to factory default values. Considerations for the Brocade 6505 and 6510 The Brocade 6505 and 6510 can function in either Fabric OS Native mode or Brocade Access Gateway mode.These switches are shipped in Fabric OS Native mode. All ports on demand (POD) licenses must be present to support Access Gateway. 72 Access Gateway Administrator's Guide 53-1002743-01

Considerations for the Brocade 6505 and 6510
3
The following commands have restricted usage, mostly because the Brocade 8000 contains
only eight Fibre Channel ports and does not support the Automatic Port Configuration policy:
-
ag --pgcreate
-
ag --policyenable
-
ag --policydisable
-
portcfgdefault
To enable or disable FCoE ports, use
fcoe --enable
and
fcoe --disable
instead of
portdisable
and
portenable
.
The
portcfgdefault
command resets the degraded state and NPIV PerPort and clears the
BufferLimitedMode on a port. For other AG platforms, this command restores the port
configuration to factory default values.
Considerations for the Brocade 6505 and 6510
The Brocade 6505 and 6510 can function in either Fabric OS Native mode or Brocade Access
Gateway mode.These switches are shipped in Fabric OS Native mode. All ports on demand (POD)
licenses must be present to support Access Gateway.
