How to find port and slot ID by index port ID shown in name server on SAN Brocade Director

When you wanna find out physical port location - slot and port ID by WWN in name server you can see just index port ID and Port# which is not as same ID as physical port ID.

If you know Index port # or port ID gathered in name server you can link it with slot and port ID by using switchshow command:

42 is index port ID, 3 is slot ID and 10 is physical port ID


SAN:admin> switchshow | grep " 42"
Index Slot Port Address Media Speed State     Proto
===================================================
 42    3   10   642a00   id    N4   Online           F-Port  10:00:00:00:00:00:00:01
