The parent Cisco Nexus Series device remembers the type of the Fabric Extender in its binary configuration. When this feature is configured, the Fabric Extender is only allowed to come online if its type matches the configured FEX-type. (Optional) Deletes the FEX type. When a Fabric Extender is connected to the fabric interfaces and does not match the configured type saved in the binary configuration on the parent switch, all configurations for all interfaces on the Fabric Extender are deleted. (Optional) Defines a serial number string. If this command is configured, a switch only allows the corresponding chassis ID to associate (using the fex associate command) if the Fabric Extender reports a matching serial number string. Caution Configuring a serial number that does not match the specified Fabric Extender forces the Fabric Extender offline. (Optional) Deletes the serial number string.

Purpose
Command or Action
• N2248T and N2248TP-E—48 100Base-T/1000Base-T Ethernet host
interfaces and 4 10-Gigabit SFP+ Ethernet fabric interfaces module.
The parent Cisco Nexus Series device remembers the type of the Fabric
Extender in its binary configuration. When this feature is configured, the Fabric
Extender is only allowed to come online if its type matches the configured
FEX-type.
(Optional)
Deletes the FEX type. When a Fabric Extender is connected to the fabric
interfaces and does not match the configured type saved in the binary
no type
Example:
switch(config-fex)# no type
Step 6
configuration on the parent switch, all configurations for all interfaces on the
Fabric Extender are deleted.
(Optional)
Defines a serial number string. If this command is configured, a switch only
allows the corresponding chassis ID to associate (using the
fex associate
command) if the Fabric Extender reports a matching serial number string.

Example:
switch(config-fex)# serial

Step 7
Configuring a serial number that does not match the specified
Fabric Extender forces the Fabric Extender offline.
Caution
(Optional)
Deletes the serial number string.
