Core and CP blade switches

We have a new Brocade DCX backbone switch.

When i run slotshow --

it shows 2 core blade switch and 2 CP blade switch

What is the use of both the switches?

I know DCX backbone switches have 2 CP blade and 2 core Blade , and CP blade is basically for load balancing .

Appreciate if someone can elaborate a little .

Also , what would be the use of AP blade switch?

Thanks

Hello

I can't attach a Brocade document so take a look at:

Home > Support > Technical Documentation and Advisories > Hardware/Platforms Documentation >  Connectrix Directors and Switches > General Reference

Here is "Brocade Fabric OS DCX Backbone Hardware Reference Manual  6.4 A01"

it has a lot of information about DCX

AP blade is primarily used for RecoverPoint/Invista
