NOTES The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in
place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for

On the Brocade DCX and DCX 8510 chassis family running Fabric OS v7.0.0 and later, the interchassis
link (ICL) license is displayed as an ICL Ports on Demand (POD) license. The fist ICL POD license
indicates half of the ICL ports; the second ICL POD license indicates all of the ICL ports. When you
upgrade a DCX to Fabric OS v7.0.0, the license display does not change. Refer to the example section
for an illustration.
