M4300 Intelligent Edge Series Fully Managed Stackable Switches Features for Switch Model M4300-96X For hardware information about switch model M4300-96X, including information about supported port cards, power supply units (PSUs), and Power over Ethernet (PoE) budgets, see the Fully Managed Stackable Switch M4300-96X Hardware Installation Guide. This section describes the features that this release supports for switch model M4300-96X. Slot-Based Port Numbering for model M4300-96X All physical ports on switch model M4300-96X are based on slots. Because this model supports 12 slots and each port card provides eight ports, the port numbering is in the format unit number/slot number/port number. APM408C, APM408P, and APM408F Port Cards for model M4300-96X For the APM408C, APM408P, and APM408F port cards, the numbering is as follows: • The unit is the number that is assigned to the switch, either automatically generated and assigned by the system, or manually assigned. The unit range is from 1 to 8. • The slot is one of 12 slots that this model supports. Therefore, the slot number ranges from 1 to 12. • Each slot can accommodate one port card, and each port card provides eight ports. Therefore, the port range is from 1 to 8. For example, the fifth port in the sixth slot of a switch model M4300-96X with a unit number 1 is designated as 1/6/5. Similarly, the very first port on the switch is 1/1/1 and the very last port is 1/12/8. APM402XL Port Card for model M4300-96X The numbering of the ports on the APM402XL port card is different from the other port cards. You can use a 40G port either with a break-out cable, in which case the single 40G port can support up to four individual 10G ports, or with a connection to another single 40G port. • Port 1 (the left 40G port on the port card) uses the following numbering: - If connected with a break-out cable to four individual 10G ports, the port numbers are 1, 2, 3, and 4. - If connected to another single 40G port, the port number is 1. In that situation, only port number 1 is used and port numbers 2, 3, and 4 are not used on the port card. • Port 2 (the right 40G port on the port card) uses the following numbering: - If connected with a break-out cable to four individual 10G ports, the port numbers are 5, 6, 7, and 8. - If connected to another single 40G port, the port number is 5. In that situation, only port number 5 is used and port numbers 6, 7, and 8 are not used on the port card. Get Started 19 User Manual
