TenGigabitEthernet 1/8 - Error State
You may connect a PE to a parent C9010 using both uplink ports but provision the PE with only the cascade port attached
to one of the uplink ports. In this case, the auto-LAG is created with only the provisioned cascade port when the PE comes
online. In the following example, PE 10 is provisioned to connect only to cascade port 1/12. However, the second uplink port
on the PE is also cabled to cascade port 1/0. As a result, port 1/0 is not included in the auto-LAG although it is discovered as
an LLDP neighbor.

In a dual-homing setup, the primary system selects PE with a PE ID based on any of the above scenarios. The secondary
system gets the PE ID selected by the primary and enables the ports connected only to the PE.
Managing a Port Extender
Manage the PEs connected to a parent C9010 through a Telnet session. You can display PE operational status and current stack
configuration or rest the PE.
Starting a Telnet Session
To manage a standalone port extender or a PE stack, start a Telnet session with the PE or the master unit in the stack using the
connect pe command.
