Installation manual

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. To
configure a port for 10-Gbps operation, use the command:
configure ports partition
Figure 6: BDXA-40G12X I/O Module on page 22 shows the front of the module, including port and
LED locations.

In the default configuration for the BDXA-40G12X 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-40G12X module has the following LEDs:
•
Module status (STAT)
•
Module diagnostics (DIAG)
•
Port status
When a port is operating in 40-Gbps mode, the farthest left LED below that port lights blue to indicate
the 40-Gbps operation. When a port is operating in 10-Gbps mode, each LED for an active channel
from the port lights green.
For information about the LEDs and their activity on the BDXA-40G12X modules, see I/O Module LEDs
on page 25.
