Dell Technologies recommends to:
● Enable the port status to operationally up before adding any devices to the port, if the port is disabled using the OMNI UI.
NOTE: Devices that are connected to the disabled port are not discovered.
● Ensure that the ports are UP before adding any switches, when you expand the leaf and spine fabric deployments.
● Ensure that the switch port is in UP, when onboarding a server to a leaf switch.
Configure breakout ports
Configure breakout ports on an interface of the leaf switch.
NOTE: By default, the auto breakout feature is enabled in spine switches. OMNI UI does not provide an option to break out
ports in spine switches.
To configure the breakout ports in a leaf switch:
1. Select the Service Instance > Switches > Leaf Switches.
2. Select a leaf switch from the list.
3. From Breakout Port and Jump Port category, select a port that you want to breakout, and click Breakout port.
NOTE: While configuring a breakout port, the existing configuration of the port is reset to default.
4. Select the Breakout Mode for the port from the list, and click Submit.
