license to enable these ports. Once enabled, ports 1/2/1 through 1/2/4 are at 40 GbE port speed,
and ports 1/3/1 through 1/3/8 are at 10 GbE port speed.
1. Download the ICX6650-40G-LIC-POD license from the Brocade software portal.
2. Place the license file on a TFTP or SCP server to which the Brocade device has access.
3. Use TFTP or SCP to copy the file to the license database of the Brocade device.
