I'm trying to determine where a set of 6454 FI's (f/w 4.1) are connected to as I'm doing some discovery on a new network.
I see that FC Ports 1-2 on FI-A and FI-B are being used however i have no idea what is connected to these ports. (I assume it's a SAN Switch) but I'm not 100% sure. I have noted the WWPN of these FC ports and searched the zoning configuration / aliases on the SAN switches but I could not find anything .
Is there any "show neighbor" type of command I could run on these ports?
How do I figure out what is connected to the ports without having physical access to the site?
Also to note is that the SAN switching would be Brocade in this scenario and not MDS. Maybe that is why I dont see anything?

End host mode for FC, is somewhat limited for this query, although you can try:
connect nxos
nx-os# show npv internal info external-interface all

i dont have those commands
root@FI-B(nx-os)# show npv internal ? errors Show error logs of NPV event-history Show various event logs of NPV events Show important events of NPV mem-stats Show memory allocation statistics of NPV msgs Show various message logs of NPV root@FI-B(nx-os)# show npv internal

I am logged in with local 'admin' account on 4.12a on 6454 and get:
UCS-B(nx-os)# show npv internal ?
errors Show error logs of NPV
event-history Show various event logs of NPV
events Show important events of NPV
info Show internal data structure information
mem-stats Show memory allocation statistics of NPV
msgs Show various message logs of NPV
pending-queue Show pending queue information
What does:
show npv status
show?
Not sure what is going on with your FIs.

i got it - it was a permission issue with my login ....
Here is my output:
switch-A(nx-os)# show npv internal info external-interface all

so these are the WWNN/WWPN of the device connected to fc1/1 and fc1/2 ?
fabric pwwn: 20:2b:50:eb:1a:8f:3f:c3, fabric nwwn: 10:00:50:eb:1a:8f:3f:c3
fabric pwwn: 20:2f:50:eb:1a:8f:3f:c3, fabric nwwn: 10:00:50:eb:1a:8f:3f:c3
is there any way to know what physical port on that switch is connected? or since they are Brocade it cannot detect that .
