ISL trunking groups

If your 8Gb SAN Switch is licensed for interswitch link (ISL) trunking, use the trunking groups available on the switch.

The FC ports are numbered from left to right, and are part of the same ISL trunking group. The trunking group consists of the ports shown in Figure 2.

NOTE:

ISL Trunking is optional software that allows you to create trunking groups of ISLs between adjacent switches. ISL trunking is available on the Brocade 8Gb SAN Switch for HP BladeSystem c-Class Power Pack+ model, or by purchasing the optional license described in ???. For more information about trunking, refer to the latest version of the HP StorageWorks Fabric OS administrator guide.
