Users Guide

On a S4148U-ON, FC interfaces are available in all port groups. The activated FC interfaces depend on the currently congured port prole.
For more information, see S4148U-ON port proles.

MX9116n Fabric Switching Engine
On an MX9116n Fabric Switching Engine module, FC interfaces are available only in unied port groups 15 and 16 (ports 43 and 44).
Figure 4. MX9116n Fabric Switching Engine — Unied port groups
To enable a Fibre Channel interface:
1 Congure a unied port group in CONFIGURATION mode. Enter 1/1 for node/slot. The port-group range depends on the switch.
port-group node/slot/port-group
2 Activate the unied port group for FC operation in PORT-GROUP mode. The available FC modes depend on the switch.
mode fc {32g-4x | 32g-2x | 32g-1x | 16g-4x}
• 16g-4x — Split a unied port group into four 16 GFC interfaces.
• 32g-1x — Split a unied port group into one 32 GFC interface. A 1x-32G interface has a rate limit of 28G.
• 32g-2x — Split a unied port group into two 32 GFC interfaces.
• 32g-4x — Split a unied port group into four 32 GFC interfaces. Each 4x-32GE breakout interface has a rate limit of 25G.
3 Return to CONFIGURATION mode.
exit
4 Enter FC Interface mode to enable data transmission. Enter a single interface, a hyphen-separated range, or multiple interfaces
separated by commas.
interface fibrechannel node/slot/port[:subport]
5 (Optional) Recongure the interface speed in INTERFACE mode.
speed {8 | 16 | 32 | auto}
6 Enable the FC interface in INTERFACE mode.
