The VDX platform comes preconfigured with a default port configuration
that enables ISL and Trunking for easy and automatic VCS fabric
formation. However, for edge port devices the port configuration requires
editing to accommodate specific connections.
The interface format is: rbridge id/slot/port number
For example: 21/0/49
The default port configuration for the 40Gb ports can be seen with the
show running-configuration command, as shown:
BRCD6740-21# show running-config interface FortyGigabitEthernet
21/0/49
interface FortyGigabitEthernet 21/0/49

There are two types of ports in a VCS fabric, ISL ports, and the edge ports.
The ISL port connects VCS fabric switches whereas edge ports connect to
end devices or non-VCS Fabric mode switches or routers.
