Supported hardware and software

In those instances in which procedures or parts of procedures documented here apply to some
switches but not to others, this guide identifies which switches are supported and which are not.
Although many different software and hardware configurations are tested and supported by
Brocade Communications Systems, Inc., for Fabric OS v7.1.0, documenting all possible
configurations and scenarios is beyond the scope of this document.
All Fabric OS switches must be running Fabric OS v6.1.0 or later; all M-EOS switches must be
running M-EOSc 9.1 or later, M-EOSn must be running 9.6.2 or later, and Cisco switches with SAN
OS must be running 3.0 (1) and 3.1 (1) or later.
