Zoning Concepts Selecting Ports on the Core Switch 2/64 The commands used to administer the Fabric OS V4.1 require specification of the slot and area numbers. These commands use a common specification method. Area numbers distinguish StorageWorks Core switch ports that have the same port number but are on different slots. When specifying a particular slot and port for a command, the slot number operand must be followed by a slash (/), followed by the port number value. Note: The SAN Switch 2/32 runs Fabric OS V4.1. Because the SAN Switch 2/32 does not implement slots, this portion of the operand is not required. For example, to enable port 4 on a switch blade in slot 2, specify the following: portEnable 2/4 The Core Switch 2/64 switch has a total of 10 slots. Slot numbers 5 and 6 are control processor cards, and slots 1 through 4 and 7 through 10 are switch cards. Each switch card contains 16 ports counted from the bottom 0 to 15. A particular port is represented by both slot number (1 through 10) and port number (0 through 15). Zoning commands for Fabric OS V4.1 require specifying a port using an area number method, where each port on a particular domain is given a unique area number. Table 2 shows area and port mapping for slots 1 through 10 on a switch. Table 2: Area and Port Mappings Slot Number Slot 1 Area and Port Mappings on a Switch Area numbers range from 0 to 15 Port numbers range from 0 to 15 Slot 2 Area numbers range from 16 to 31 Port numbers range from 0 to 15 Slot 3 Area numbers range from 32 to 47 Port numbers range from 0 to 15 Slot 4 Area numbers range from 48 to 63 Port numbers range from 0 to 15 Slots 5 and 6 Control Processor Cards Slot 7 Area numbers range from 0 to 15 Port numbers range from 0 to 15 Zoning Version 3.1.x/4.1.x User Guide 23
