Virtual Fabrics No M-EOS 9.6.2 features supported in Fabric OS 6.0 In addition to support for McDATA Fabric mode, Fabric OS 6.0 supports other M-EOS 9.6.2 feature capabilities. Some features have inherent limitations. These are described here. Port number offset Some M-EOS switches assign PIDs with an area field (the middle byte of the PID) that has an offset of four added to the port number. This means, for example, that the physical port number 0 has an address value used in the PID of 4. The port number offset is conveyed between the neighboring switches through the ESS ILS (Exchange Security Attributes), allowing neighboring switches to accurately identify port numbers and their associated PIDs. The maximum port number is also available in the ESS ILS. NPIV NPIV management on switch running 6.0 is the same as in the standard Fabric OS. Fabric OS 6.x administrator guide 481
