Unsupported features
Features that are not documented in this guide are not supported. Table 4 lists the features that
are not supported on Brocade FastIron devices. If required, these features are available on other
Brocade devices.
Stacking configuration for
ICX 6430 and ICX 6450
devices
ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 devices have four ports on
the front panel for stacking configuration. ICX 6430
and ICX 6450 devices ship with two default stacking
ports configured. ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 devices
support linear and ring stack topologies, and can
also operate as standalone devices. When stacking
is enabled, ports 1 and 3 are dedicated to stacking
and cannot be used for data ports. If stacking is not
enabled on the ports, then all four stacking ports can
be used for data or uplink ports.

stack” on page 244

Auto Image Copy for stack
units
The Auto Image Copy feature ensures that all units in
a stack are running the same flash image after a
stack merge. This feature is introduced on the ICX
and FCX devices.

Software licensing
enhancements
Software-based licensing is introduced on the ICX
6450 devices. The premium license is available on
the ICX 6450 devices.
“Software-based Licensing” on page 199
Licensing for Ports on
Demand
Licensing for Ports on Demand (POD) is introduced
on the ICX 6450 devices. The ICX 6450 device has
four active uplink and stacking ports on slot 2. By
default, regardless of what SFP+ media optic is used,
ports 1 and 3 are 10 Gbps ports. By default, without
a license at bootup, ports 2 and 4 come up in 10
Gbps port speed in an error disabled state. To enable
ports 2 and 4 to 10 Gbps port speed, purchase the
ICX6450-2X10G-LIC-POD license. The PoD feature is
not applicable to ICX 6430 devices because there
are no 10 Gbps ports on the device.
