Usage Information
You can split a 40G port into four 10G ports.
You can use the stack-unit portmode command to dynamically fan-out 40G ports into 10G ports and vice-
versa without reloading a switch.
The port must be in a default configuration before it can be split. As the 40G port is lost in the configuration when
the port is split, ensure that you remove the port from other L2/L3 feature configurations.
You cannot use this command if you use an LR4 optics.
The following guidelines apply to the splitting of 40GbE QSFP+ ports into four 10GbE SFP+ ports by using the
stack-unit portmode command on the S6000 or S6000–ON platform.
