www.dell.com | support.dell.com Command History Version 8.3.16.1 Introduced on MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module Usage Information This command is found on the 1000/10000 Base-T Ethernet interfaces. When you enable auto, the system performs and automatic discovery to determine the optics installed and configure the appropriate speed. When you configure a speed for the 1000/10000 interface, you should confirm negotiation auto command setting. Both sides of the link should have auto-negotiation either enabled or disabled. For speed settings of 1000 or auto, the software sets the link to auto-negotiation and you cannot change that setting. In FTOS, the command speed 1000 is an exact equivalent of speed auto 1000 in IOS. Related Commands duplex (1000/10000 Interfaces) negotiation auto Configures duplex mode on physical interfaces with the speed set to 1000/ 1000. Enables or disables auto-negotiation on an interface. stack-unit portmode Split a single 40G port into 4-10G ports on the MXL Switch. Syntax stack-unit stack-unit port number portmode quad Parameters stack-unit number Enter the stack member unit identifier of the stack member to reset. MXL Switch range: 0 to 5 Note: The MXL Switch commands accept Unit ID numbers 0-5, though MXL Switch supports stacking up to 3 units only with FTOS version 8.3.7.1. Enter the port number of the 40G port to be split. MXL Switch range: Enter one of the following port numbers: 48, 52, 56, or 60. Defaults Disabled Command Modes CONFIGURATION Command History Version 8.3.16.1 Introduced on MXL 10/40GbE Switch IO Module Usage Information Splitting a 40G port into 4x10G port is supported only on a standalone unit. • Split ports cannot be used as stack-link to stack an MXL Switch. • Split ports MXL Switch unit cannot be a part of any stacked system. • The unit number with the split ports must be the default (stack-unit 0) • This can be verified using CLI "show system brief". If the unit ID is different than 0, then it must be renumbered to 0 before ports are split. By using the stack unit id renumber 0 command in EXEC mode. The quad port must be in a default configuration before it can be split into 4x10G ports. The 40G port is lost in the config when the port is split, so be sure the port is also removed from other L2/L3 feature configurations. The system must be reloaded after issuing the CLI for the change to take effect. 276 | Interfaces
