Identifying switch ports and interfaces

Physical ports on the switch and their corresponding logical software interfaces are identified using the format:

member/slot/port

On the 6100 Switch Series

  • member: Always 1. VSF is not supported on this switch.
  • slot: Always 1. This is not a modular switch, so there are no slots.
  • port: Physical number of a port on the switch.

For example, the logical interface1/1/4in software is associated with physical port 4 on the switch.

On the 6200 Switch Series

  • member: Member number of the switch in a Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) stack. Range: 1 to 8. The primary switch is always member 1. If the switch is not a member of a VSF stack, then member is 1.
  • slot: Always 1. This is not a modular switch, so there are no slots.
  • port: Physical number of a port on the switch.

For example, the logical interface1/1/4在软件与物理端口4相关联slot 1 on member 1.
