On Nexus 5548/5596 switches:

The Nexus 5548 and 5596 switches use Carmel Unified Port Controller ASIC (UPC Gen 2). Each UPC ASIC have 8 ports

mapped to front panel ports. This can be seen with the following command:

Note: Column 1- Indicates the physical ports e.g., Eth1/1, Eth1/3, Eth1/9, Eth1/17, etc.

Column 3- Indicates the UPC ASIC number.

Column 4- Indicates the UPC ASIC interface number. 0-7 are the 8 port available on the Gen-2 ASIC.

Note: Only ports identified as mapped to the same UPC ASIC can be member of the same port channel. For example,

Eth1/1 to Eth1/8 can be used in the same port channel because they are all mapped to UPC#0.
