On the 8320 Switch Series
  • member: Always 1. VSF is not supported on this switch.
  • slot: Line module number. Always 1.
  • port: Physical number of a port on a line module
For example, the logical interface 1/1/4 in software is associated with physical port 4 in slot 1 on member 1.
On the 8325 Switch Series
  • member: Always 1. VSF is not supported on this switch.
  • slot: Line module number. Always 1.
