CUP fabrics overview Control Unit Port (CUP) is a protocol for managing FICON directors. Host-based management programs manage the switches using CUP protocol by sending commands to the emulated control device implemented by Fabric OS. A Brocade switch or director that supports CUP can be controlled - HP StorageWorks 8/80 | Brocade Web Tools Administrator's Guide v6.2.0 (53-100119 - Page 292
