To verify if a port is a candidate for mobility as well as if mobility as been turned on for a given port use
the debug vlan rule ports CLI command. Note that ports 6/1-2 are mobile ports. Ports 7/1-2 and 8/1-2 are
not a candidate for mobility because they are either 802.1Q ports or part of a link aggregate.

To look at the protocol indicator map use the debug vlan rule protocol-map CLI command as shown
below. This command displays the Protocol Indicator (PI) map. In order for group mobility to classify
packets on the OmniSwitch, it needs to program the hardware with protocol type and protocol indicator.
The Protocol Indicator is later used in the CAM lookup. This command displays the protocols
programmed and the Protocol Indicator.
