QuestionQ6

Designing the FlexPod Solution

With an FI 6248 and a GEM module, what is a possible port assignment for native Fibre Channel and Ethernet?

  • A Eth ports: 1-21, 33-48, Fibre Channel ports. 22-32
  • B Eth ports: 1-18, 33-40, Fibre Channel ports. 19-32, 41-48
  • C Eth ports: 1-21, Fibre Channel ports. 22-48
  • D Eth ports: 1-16, 41-48, Fibre Channel ports. 17-40
Explanation

The FI 6248 uses the fixed-port and GEM unified-port ranges for native Fibre Channel: ports 17–32 and 33–40 can be assigned to Fibre Channel. The remaining ports, 1–16 and 41–48, are assigned to Ethernet in this layout.
