If a Fabric Switching Engine is in SmartFabric mode, it automatically discovers and configures an attached
Fabric Expander:
Virtual ports on the Fabric Expander and a virtual slot ID are created and mapped to 8x25GE breakout
interfaces in FEM mode on the Fabric Engine.
The unit ID is automatically discovered.
Server traffic is transmitted through the QSFP28-DD uplink on the Fabric Expander to the Fabric
Engine.
If the Fabric Switching Engine is in Full Switch mode, configure the switch using the CLI. You must
manually configure the unit ID of the Fabric Expander, for more information see Virtual ports. The unit ID is
also called the virtual slot ID.
