On a S4148U-ON, FC interfaces are available in all port groups. The activated FC interfaces depend on the currently configured port profile. For more information, see S4148U-ON port profiles. Figure 3. S4148U-ON unified port groups MX9116n Fabric Switching Engine On an MX9116n Fabric Switching Engine module, FC interfaces are available only in unified port groups 15 and 16 (ports 43 and 44). Figure 4. MX9116n Fabric Switching Engine - Unified port groups To enable a Fibre Channel interface: 1 Configure a unified port group in CONFIGURATION mode. Enter 1/1 for node/slot. The port-group range depends on the switch. port-group node/slot/port-group 2 Activate the unified port group for FC operation in PORT-GROUP mode. The available FC modes depend on the switch. mode fc {32g-4x | 32g-2x | 32g-1x | 16g-4x} • 16g-4x - Split a unified port group into four 16 GFC interfaces. • 32g-1x - Split a unified port group into one 32 GFC interface. A 1x-32G interface has a rate limit of 28G. • 32g-2x - Split a unified port group into two 32 GFC interfaces. • 32g-4x - Split a unified port group into four 32 GFC interfaces. Each 4x-32GE breakout interface has a rate limit of 25G. 3 Return to CONFIGURATION mode. exit 4 Enter FC Interface mode to enable data transmission. Enter a single interface, a hyphen-separated range, or multiple interfaces separated by commas. interface fibrechannel node/slot/port[:subport] 5 (Optional) Reconfigure the interface speed in INTERFACE mode. speed {8 | 16 | 32 | auto} 6 Enable the FC interface in INTERFACE mode. no shutdown Configure FC interface OS10(config)# port-group 1/1/15 OS10(conf-pg-1/1/15)# mode FC 16g-4x OS10(conf-pg-1/1/15)# exit OS10(config)# interface fibrechannel 1/1/43:1 OS10(conf-if-fc-1/1/43:1)# speed 32 OS10(conf-if-fc-1/1/43:1)# no shutdown Interfaces 87
