If the selected Admin Domain does not include ownership of some ports that are physically present
on the switch, these ports are represented as black rectangles with horizontal gray bars indicating
they are not accessible. E_Ports are visible in all domains. You cannot open the Port Administration
window by clicking these ports. In Figure 13, only ports 16 through 31 (and not the switch) are
owned by the current Admin Domain, as shown in the figure:
• E_Ports 0, 1, 14, 24, and 25 are shown as online and accessible.
• All other ports in the range from 0 through 15 are shown as inaccessible, with no type
information displayed. If you click the E_Ports in this range, the Port Management module
opens in read-only mode.
• Ports in the range from 16 through 31 are both accessible and controllable. When these ports
(including E_Ports) are clicked, the Port Administration window opens.
NOTE
For the Brocade DCX, the Port Admin view is launched for ICL ports.
USB port representation
For switches with USB ports, the USB Storage Management view is launched for USB ports (see
Figure 14).
