NPIV Mode default port mapping
The switch module contains 28 total ports. Of these, F_Ports are ports 1-24 and N_Ports are ports
0 and 25-27.
In NPIV mode, the switch module F_Ports are mapped to N_Ports. The following table lists the
factory-default F_Port to N_Port mapping for NPIV mode.
Ports 17-24 are the eight external CEE ports.
Processor and memory specifications
The processor and memory installed in the switch module are shown in Table 5.
