slot regardless of the actual physical number of ports. Port numbers 3 and 4 apply
to the MDA in the middle slot regardless of the actual physical number of ports;
and port numbers 5 and 6 apply to the MDA in the right slot regardless of the
physical number of ports.
For example, a Passport 8683POS Module in the second slot of the Passport 8600
series chassis with an OC-12c/STM-4 MDA in the left slot, an OC-3c/STM-1
MDA in the middle, and an OC-12c/STM-4 MDA in the right slot has the
following port numbers for management and configuration:
2/1: OC-12c/STM-4
2/3: OC-3c/STM-1, left port
2/4: OC-3c/STM-1, right port
2/5: OC-12c/STM-4
As another example of port numbering, an Passport 8683POS Module in the
second slot of the chassis with an OC-3c/STM-1 MDA in the left slot, the middle
slot blank, and an OC-12c/STM-4 installed in the right slot has the following port
numbers:
2/1: OC-3c/STM-1, left port
2/2: OC-3c/STM-1, right port
2/5: OC-12c/STM-4
A Passport 8683POS Module with three OC-3c/STM-1 MDAs installed has ports
numbered consecutively 1 through 6, from left to right.
