Ports on Demand

The Brocade models listed below can be purchased with the number of licensed ports indicated. As
your needs increase, you can activate unlicensed ports up to a device-constrained maximum by
purchasing and installing the optional Ports on Demand licensed product.
ATTENTION
Licenses are not interchangeable between units. For example, if you bought a POD license for a
Brocade 300, you cannot use that license on a Brocade 5100 or VA-40FC. The licenses are based
on the switch License Identifiers and are not interchangeable.
