Fibre Channel Router registration model
Edge-to-edge device sharing (no FCIP configured
in backbone)
shows the instance diagram which depicts fabric discovery of the backbone and edge
fabric with edge to edge device sharing.
A port on FCR configured as an EX_Port is filtered out during port discovery on the backbone for
edge-to-edge device sharing.
If only the backbone fabric is being managed through Brocade Network Advisor, then only
instances in the BackBone Fabric view are discovered. For edge fabric managed through Brocade
Network Advisor, refer to the
section. If both the backbone and the edge fabrics are
managed through Brocade Network Advisor, then all instances and associations are discoverable.
