Upload Switch Configuration File
This feature is supported for MXL in M100E chassis only.
By using this feature, customer can upload the file in which they already have made all the configuration
instead of configuring through I/O Module Configuration.
To upload switch configuration file:
1. Select Upload Switch Configuration File option. After you select the option, File Name, File

existing IPs from the switch and pull it out and upload to the configuration file. It gets applied
on all selected switches what you have chosen to configure. It also pull out the host name and
credentials too.
Configuring uplink ports on all chassis independently
1. On the I/O Module Configuration page, select the Configure Uplinks check box.
2. Select Configure Uplink Ports on All Chassis independently option.
Select the arrow left to the section title to expand the section.
3. In the Configure Uplinks area, expand the chassis section, and perform one of the following actions:
• Select the Configure uplinks on each I/O Module Independently check box to configure
different ports as uplink ports in each I/O module.
The table lists ports that are available in each I/O module in separate columns.
• Clear the Configure the uplinks on each I/O Module Independently check box to configure the
same ports as uplink ports across all I/O modules.
The table displays the following information:
– IO modules (Model Name) that is present in each fabric.
– Ports that are available in each IO module.
4. In the table, select the Quadport mode check box if you want to run the port in Quad mode.
When a 40 GbE port is run in quad mode, it provides four 10 GB Ethernet interfaces that number
sequentially starting with the port number of the 40GbE interface. For example, when Quadport
mode is enabled on the GbE port number 33, it makes four 10GbE links with the port numbers 33,
34, 35, and 36.
5. From the drop-down list next to the corresponding port numbers, select the uplink that you want to
configure on each port.
NOTE: Uplink is an interconnect (also called port-channel, or grouping of ports) which is
created on a switch by creating a connection to other switches in a networking environment.
ASM can configure uplinks on MXLs, I/O Aggregators, FN410S, and FN2210S switches (I/O
modules).
6. Click Next to configure uplink port on all chassis independently.
