Usage Information Splitting a 40G port into 4x10G port is supported on standalone and stacked units. stack-unit stack-
unit port number portmode quad dynamically fan-out 40G ports to 10G ports and vice-versa
without reload in
S6000 and S6000–ON switch.
The quad port must be in a default conguration before it can be split into 4x10G ports. The 40G port is lost
in the cong when the port is split, so be sure that the port is also removed from other L2/L3 feature
congurations.
This command cannot be used if LR4 optics are inserted on the 40G interface.
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.
