Splitting 100G Ports
The platform supports splitting a single 100G QSFP 28 port into any of the following ports:
• Two 50G ports
• Four 25G ports
• One 40G port
• Four 10G ports
NOTE: You can use the supported breakout cables (for a list of supported cables, refer to the Installation Guide or the Release
Notes).
To split a single 100G port into 50G, 25G, 40G, and 10G ports, use the following commands:
• Split a 100G port into two 50G ports.
CONFIGURATION Mode
stack-unit stack-unit-number module module-number port number portmode dual speed 50G
– stack-unit-number: enter the stack member unit identier on which the port resides.
– module module-number: enter the keyword module then the module number to specify the optional module in which the port is
present.
– number: enter the port number of the 100G port to be split. The range is from 1 to 8.
• Split a 100G port into four 25G ports.
CONFIGURATION Mode
stack-unit stack-unit-number module module-number port number portmode quad speed 25G
– stack-unit-number: enter the stack member unit identier on which the port resides.
– module module-number: enter the keyword module then the module number to specify the optional module in which the port is
present.
– number: enter the port number of the 100G port to be split. The range is from 1 to 8.
• Split a 100G port into one 40G ports.
CONFIGURATION Mode
stack-unit stack-unit-number module module-number port number portmode single speed 40G
– stack-unit-number: enter the stack member unit identier on which the port resides.
– module module-number: enter the keyword module then the module number to specify the optional module in which the port is
present.
– number: enter the port number of the 100G port to be split. The range is from 1 to 8.
• Split a 100G port into four 10G ports.
CONFIGURATION Mode
stack-unit stack-unit-number module module-number port number portmode quad speed 10G
– stack-unit-number: enter the stack member unit identier on which the port resides.
– module module-number: enter the keyword module then the module number to specify the optional module in which the port is
present.
– number: enter the port number of the 100G port to be split. The range is from 1 to 8.
Link Dampening
Interface state changes occur when interfaces are administratively brought up or down or if an interface state changes.
Every time an interface changes a state or aps, routing protocols are notied of the status of the routes that are aected by the change in
state. These protocols go through the momentous task of re-converging. Flapping; therefore, puts the status of entire network at risk of
