About port regions
This section describes port regions on FastIron switches.
FastIron X Series device port regions
Ports on the FastIron X Series devices are grouped into regions. For a few features, you will need to
know the region to which a port belongs. However, for most features, a port region does not affect
configuration or operation of the feature.
NOTE
Port regions do not apply to trunk group configurations on the FastIron X Series devices. However, port
regions do apply to port monitoring and unknown unicast configurations on FastIron X Series devices.
• SX-FI48GPP: ports 1 - 48 belong to port region 0
• SX-FI-2XG: ports 1 - 2 belong to port region 0
• SX-FI-8XG: ports 1 - 8 belong to port region 0
• SX-FI-24HF: ports 1 - 24 belong to port region 0
• SX-FI-24GPP: ports 1 - 24 belong to port region 0
FCX device port regions
The port region rules for FCX devices are as follows:
• For all platforms, a 24-port Gbps module has one port region. In addition, any 10 Gbps ports on the
device also belong to this single port region.
• For all platforms, the 48-port Gbps module has two port regions:
‐ Ports 1 - 24 belong to port region 0
‐ Ports 25 - 48 belong to port region 1
• For FCX648 devices with two 10 Gbps XFP ports, and a two 10 Gbps CX4 stacking ports:
‐ The two 10 Gbps XFP ports belong to port region 0 (along with ports 1 -24 )
‐ The two 10 Gbps CX4 stacking ports belong to port region 1 (along with ports 25 - 48)
• For FCX648 devices with four 10 Gbps SFP+ ports:
‐ 10 Gbps SFP+ ports 3 and 4 belong to port region 0 (along with ports 1 -24 )
‐ 10 Gbps SFP+ ports 1 and 2 ports belong to port region 1 (along with ports 25 - 48)
ICX 6610 device port regions
• A 24-port Gbps has the following port regions:
‐ Ports 1-24 belong to region 0
‐ 10 Gbps SFP+ ports belong to region 0
• A 48-port Gbps has the following port regions:
‐ Ports 1-24 belong to region 0
‐ Ports 25-48 belong to region 1
‐ 10 Gbps SFP+ ports belong to region 0
