Thanks to an off-list hint from a Brocade contact after a list member helpfully forwarded my message, I was told to look out for something real soon now, and sure enough on the knowledgebase now v7.3.00 for FCX/FSX/etc/etc is released and contains lots of IPv6 features; as usual check the release notes for the details. Also worth mentioning, in relation to the other recent thread about configuring lots of VLANs at once, is the newish "Multi-range VLAN" feature "allows you to use a single command to create and configure multiple VLANs.", which appeared in v7.02.02. The example is: vlan 16 17 20 to 24 ta e 1/1/1 Jethro. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
