Isl Trunking Groups; Trunking Groups - HP AA979A - StorageWorks SAN Switch 2/8V Installation Manual

Overview

ISL Trunking Groups

If your SAN Switch 2/8V, 2/16V and 2/16N switch is licensed for ISL trunking,
use the trunking groups available on the switch.
The Fibre Channel ports are numbered from left to right, color-coded into groups
of four to indicate the groups of ports that can be used in the same interswitch link
(ISL) trunking group. The trunking groups are the two or four sets of four ports at
the top or at the bottom of the group, as shown in
Figure 3: Trunking groups
