PowerConnect MLX-8 Router(config)# router mpls The command can't be used when system contains -d class modules. If you install an NI-MLX-10Gx8-D module in a device that is running MPLS, the NI-MLX-10Gx8-D module will boot in INTERACTIVE mode, and the following error message is displayed.

If you try to configure MPLS on device that has NI MLX 8x10G -D modules installed, you will see
the following error message.
PowerConnect MLX-8 Router(config)# router mpls
The command can't be used when system contains -d class modules.
If you install an NI-MLX-10Gx8-D module in a device that is running MPLS, the NI-MLX-10Gx8-D
module will boot in INTERACTIVE mode, and the following error message is displayed.
R2-MLX#
Module is inserted into slot 7
SYSLOG: May 28 16:22:35:<13>May 28 16:22:35 System: Module was inserted to
slot 7
Module 7 is -d class, it can't work when router mpls is enabled.
Reset slot 7
SYSLOG: May 28 16:22:48 :<13>May 28 16:22:48 Module 7 is reset by mgmt
(reason: boot to interactive mode)
24-port 100/1000 Ethernet interface module
Figure 7
shows the front panel of the 24-port 100/1000 Gbps Ethernet SFP interface module.
FIGURE 7
24-port 100/1000 Ethernet module front panel
The front panel includes the following features:
•
LEDs to the left support the top ports, LEDs to the right support the bottom ports
•
24 100/1000 Ethernet SFP ports
Table 8
describes the LEDs for the 24-port 100/1000 Ethernet module
100/1000 Ethernet ports
The 100/1000 Ethernet interface module contains 24 physical ports, through which you can
connect your router to other network routers at a speed of 100 Mbps or 1 Gbps.
You must insert an SFP-compliant fiber-optic transceiver (provided by Dell) into a physical port.
SFP-compliant fiber-optic transceivers provide a physical medium-dependent (PMD) fiber interface
that can be used with either the LAN physical layer (PHY) or WAN physical layer (WAN PHY).
