1.
The Ethernet ports of an FX8-24 extension blade can operate with another FX8-24 or Brocade
7800 switch. The maximum number of FX8-24 blades supported in a chassis is four. An FX8-24
can operate with an FX8-24E; however, IPsec and compression is only supported on one 10GbE
port on the FX8-24.
2.
The 64-port card is not supported for FICON but may be in the same chassis used for FICON. It
must be in a logical switch that does not have any FICON traffic.
3.
For the 48-port card in an 8-slot chassis, FICON is supported in a logical switch configured for
zero-based addressing mode. For this card in a DCX-4S Backbone, FICON is supported only on a
logical switch defined for port-based addressing (mode 2).
4.
FC10-6 10 Gbps port blade for ISL connections.
