Users Guide

The table lists ports that are available in each I/O module in separate columns.
• Clear the Congure the uplinks on each I/O Module Independently check box to congure the same ports as uplink ports
across all I/O modules.
The table displays the following information:
– I/O modules (Model Name) that is present in each fabric.
– Ports that are available in each I/O 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 congure on each port.
NOTE: Uplink is an interconnect (also referred to 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 congure uplinks on MXLs, I/O
Aggregators, FN410S, and FN2210S switches—I/O modules.
6. Click Next to congure uplink port on all chassis independently.
NOTE: Uplink is an external connection from chassis switch to customer network environment. Customer is still
required to congure corresponding ports and uplinks on the top of rack switches, ASM only congures the chassis.
Upload Switch Conguration File
This feature is supported for MXL in M1000e Chassis only.
By using this feature, you can upload a precongured switch conguration le instead of conguring through the I/O Module
Conguration.
To upload switch conguration le:
1. Select Upload Switch Conguration File option. After you select the option, File Name, File Description eld, Upload File eld
tab are appeared.
Enter the result of your step here (optional).
2. Type the le name which you want to upload in File name eld.
3. Type a le description which about the le in File Description eld.
4. Click Browse beside Upload File tab. It directs you to your local system where you have saved the le.
5. Select the le and click Open to upload it.
NOTE: After you upload the switch conguration le, it gets uploaded on switch. It takes existing IPs from the
switch and pulls it out and upload to the conguration le. It gets applied on all selected switches what you have
chosen to congure. It also pulls out the host name and credentials.
Dening uplinks
1. On the Uplink Port Conguration page of the Congure Chassis wizard, in the Congure Uplinks area, click Dene Uplinks.
2. In the Dene Uplinks dialog box, click Add Uplink, and enter the following:
a. Enter the name for the uplink.
b. From the Port Channel drop-down list, select the port channel that you want to create on the switch.
c. From the Network Type drop-down list, select one or more networks that you want to assign to the uplink.
The Network Name(s) column displays the networks that are assigned to the uplinks.
To delete an uplink, click the Delete icon left to the corresponding uplinks.
3. Repeat step 2 to dene multiple uplinks.
4. Click Save.
After you dene and save uplink, uplink is available to get applied to switch.
