Brocade 8428 FCoE embedded switch support
Brocade 8428 is the Brocade CEE high speed switching module. CEE discovery and configuration
support is similar to that of the Brocade 8000 and FCOE10-24 as detailed in the previous sections.
There are some distinct differences in Brocade 8428. For more information about the differences,
refer to
“Differences from Brocade 8000 and FCoE10-24”
on page 74,
“Support for Layer 3
features”
on page 75, and

Fabric switch partitioning subprofile
This subprofile models all Brocade switches. Every Brocade switch is partitioned into a logical
Brocade_Switch and a physical Brocade_PhysicalComputerSystem instance associated through
HostedDependency. In addition, every port is partitioned into a logical Brocade_SwitchFCPort and
physical Brocade_PCSNetworkPort instance associated through CIM_HostedDependency.
Data model
Figure 35
shows the fabric switch partitioning subprofile data model.

Registration
Only instances of Brocade_PhysicalComputerSystem that are Virtual Fabrics-enabled are
associated to the Brocade_RegisteredSubProfile instance for fabric switch partitioning.
Figure 36
shows the registration for fabric switch partitioning subprofile.
