MDS-BROCADE ISSUE

[kakkargaurav]

Hi,

I have MDS and Brocade switch in the network scenario , suppose i have configured MDS 9124 with VSAN  and all the port licensed ports in MDS which are connected to BROCADE switch and also i am using Interop Mode 3 , so what configuration parameter should be on MCData 4700M ( like interop mode and  other configuration parameter) so that  ports on both sides should come.

Or could you please provide me the configuration for the both ends MCData 4700M and MDS 9124 so that ports on both sides should come up

Thanks

I am not clear about the fabric topolgy and what's the goal.

Assuming you have a lab environment to test brocade ---(ISL)---MDS--(ISL)--Mc Data, and there are devices on all 3 switches need to talk to each other on one vsan, then you can use interop mode 1 on MDS and

Open Fabric on Mc Data.

There is more information in this document
