NOTE:
When a PE is reloaded, the uplink port come up as uplink by default, even though it has been configured as access ports.
After connecting to CB, the system converts the uplink port to access port. Until conversion, some LLDP packets are
advertised.
Configuring Uplink Ports as Access Ports
Under the PE provision configuration, you can configure the uplink ports as access port using the following steps:
1. Enter Port-Extender Configuration mode to provision a PE.
CONFIGURATION mode
pe provision pe-id
pe-id is a port-extender ID number from 0 to 255.
2. Configure the uplink ports as access port using the following command.
PORT-EXTENDER CONFIGURATION mode
stack-unit unit-number access-ports port-range
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:
Warning: Converting an uplink port connected to CB might cause disconnection of PE.
