Table 4: Hexidecimal to binary conversions (Continued)
Once the Hexadecimal is converted into a binary bit map, each bit represents a
port, where a value of 1 means yes and a value of 0 means no. The bit map is read
from right to left, that is, the least significant bit represents port 0.
For example, if the member port value is displayed in hex as:
This corresponds to a binary bit map of the member ports as follows:
This bit map displays the member ports as port 0, 1, 7, 13, and 16. Note that each
switch has an internal port (in the example above, port 16) which is always a
member of a broadcast group.
