Two kinds of user interface index exist: absolute user interface index and relative user interface index. 

1)  The absolute user interface indexes are as follows: 

z 

The absolute AUX user interfaces are numbered 0 through 7.  

z 

VTY user interface indexes follow AUX user interface indexes. The first absolute VTY user 

interface is numbered 8, the second is 9, and so on. 

2)  A relative user interface index can be obtained by appending a number to the identifier of a user 

interface type. It is generated by user interface type. The relative user interface indexes are as 

follows: 

z 

AUX user interfaces are numbered from AUX0 to AUX7.  

z 

VTY user interfaces are numbered VTY0, VTY1, and so on.  

 

Switch 5500-EI support Fabric. A Fabric can contain up to eight devices. Accordingly, the AUX user 

interfaces in a Fabric can be numbered from AUX0 to AUX7, through which all the console ports of the 

units in a Fabric can be identified. Refer to the XRN Fabric part for information about Fabric.
