For that just go with the command fabricshow: switch01> fabricshow Now we have a final step – to identify which switch is it. We know the FC Address of our port, we know to which Domain it belongs and exactly to which port. Port Index: 165 – is already given (as hex) in Core PID Address.If this switch required shared area addressing (basically more than 255), the first 8 bit of Node ID would be “borrowed” as Area ID as well. 00 – this is the Node ID – 00, because to this port only one Node is connected directly / No NPIV.As you can see this is exactly – our Port Index. a5 – this is the Area ID – a5 hex = 165 dec.But in few words – First 8 bits are Domain ID, another 8 bits are Area ID, and last 8 bits are Node ID – 00 or AP_PA, so: I mentioned FC Addressing in Fibre Channel addressing entry if you wish to refresh the knowledge.
