NOTE:
When a PE is reloaded, the uplink port come up as uplink by default, even though it has been congured as access ports. After
connecting to CB, the system converts the uplink port to access port. Until conversion, some LLDP packets are advertised.
Conguring Uplink Ports as Access Ports
Under the PE provision conguration, you can congure the uplink ports as access port using the following steps:
1 Enter Port-Extender Conguration mode to provision a PE.
CONFIGURATION mode
pe provision pe-id
pe-id is a port-extender ID number from 0 to 255.
2 Congure the uplink ports as access port using the following command.
PORT-EXTENDER CONFIGURATION mode

The stack unit-number ranges from 0 to 7.
The port-range is from 1 to 4. You can enter multiple port-range separated by comma.
After executing the above command, following warning message appears:
