1 = 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports 2 = LEDs
In the default configuration for the BDXA-10G48X module, all ports:
•
Are added to the default VLAN as untagged.
•
Inherit the properties of the default VLAN (for example, protocol type and VLAN ID).
The BDXA-10G48X module has the following LEDs:
•
Module status (STAT)
•
Module diagnostics (DIAG)
•
Port status
For information about the LEDs and their activity on the BDXA-10G48X modules, see I/O Module LEDs
on page 25.
BDXA-40G24X I/O Module
The BDXA-40G24X I/O module supports 24 QSFP+-based 40-gigabit Ethernet ports. Each QSFP+ port
can operate as a single 40-gigabit port or as four 10-gigabit ports. In 40G port mode, the module
provides 24 ports; if all ports are operating in 10G mode, the module provides 96 ports.
Note
BlackDiamond X series I/O modules are supplied with no pre-installed optical modules.
When the ports are operating in 40-Gbps mode, the port numbers increment by 4. For example, the
first four ports in the top row would be numbered (from left to right) 1, 5, 9, and 13. Other port numbers
are displayed in ExtremeXOS as “not available.” When a port is configured to operate in 10-Gbps mode,
all four port numbers associated with that physical port are displayed as being available. The default
mode for the ports is 40-Gbps operation.
When a port is configured to operate in 10-Gbps mode, all four port numbers associated with that
physical port are displayed as being available. To configure a port for 10-Gbps operation, use the
following command:
configure ports partition
Figure 5: BDXA-40G24X I/O Module on page 21 shows the front of the module, including port and
LED locations.
