Enabling ports on the front panel

By default, ports 1/1/33 to 1/1/56 are in an error-disabled state. Use the ICX6650-10G-LIC-POD license to enable these ports. Once enabled, the ports are up at 10 GbE port speed.

One ICX6650-10G-LIC-POD license enables eight ports at a time in sequential order. Refer to Table 17 for a list PoD licenses.
