Usage
Information
Splitting a 40G port into 4x10G port is supported on standalone and stacked units.
stack-unit stack-unit port number portmode quad dynamically fan-out
40G ports to 10G ports and vice-versa without reload in S6000 and S6000–ON
switch.
The quad port must be in a default configuration before it can be split into 4x10G
ports. The 40G port is lost in the config when the port is split, so be sure that the
port is also removed from other L2/L3 feature configurations.
This command cannot be used if LR4 optics are inserted on the 40G interface.
The following guidelines apply to the splitting of 40GbE QSFP+ ports into four
10GbE SFP+ ports by using the stack-unit portmode command on the S6000
or S6000–ON platform.
On an S6000 switch, the fan-out profile constructs automatically with default
24 ports on quad-port-profile. The default ports are,
0,8,16,24,32,36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,68,72,76,80,84,88,92,100,108,116,124.
