Upgrading or downgrading configuration considerations for PoD
Once the correct license is installed, the port displays the state as up as shown in the example
output below.
Configuration considerations when configuring PoD
for ICX 6450 devices only
Consider the following when configuring PoD for ICX 6450 devices only:
• By default, without a license at bootup, ports 2 and 4 come up in 10 Gbps port speed in an
error disabled state. The show interface ethernet command displays the port in the
ERROR_DISABLED state at bootup. Refer to section, “Configuration considerations when
configuring PoD on an interface” on page 213 for output example from the show interface
ethernet command.
• From the default state, ports 2 and 4 can be configured to 1 Gbps port speed using the
speed-duplex 1000-full-master command without a license. You do not need to reboot the
switch for the links to come up in 1 Gbps port speed.
• If you download the ICX6450-2X10G-LIC-POD license to the device, insert the correct 10 Gbps
optic transceiver, and enter the speed-duplex 10g-full command on the interface, you can
immediately begin using ports 2 and 4 in 10 Gbps port speed. You do not need to reboot the
switch for the links to come up.
