Port Groups and Port Rate Modes
This section includes the following topics:
• Port Groups, page 22-3
• Port Rate Modes, page 22-4
• Dedicated Rate Mode Configurations for the 8-Gbps Modules, page 22-7
• Reserving Bandwidth Quickly for the 8-Gbps Modules, page 22-8
• Dynamic Bandwidth Management, page 22-9
• Out-of-Service Interfaces, page 22-10
Port Groups
Each module or switch can have one or more ports in port groups that share common resources such as
bandwidth and buffer credits. Port groups are defined by the hardware consisting of sequential ports. For
example, ports 1 through 12, ports 13 through 24, ports 25 through 36, and ports 37 through 48 are the
port groups on the 48-port 4-Gbps Fibre Channel switching modules.
Table 22-2 shows the port groups for the Generation 2 and Generation 3 Fibre Channel modules, and
Generation 2 Fabric switches.
