Install Guide

If you use a 40G LR4 or 40G LM4 optics, you can only convert a 100G port into a 1x40G port. LR4 and
LM4 optics do not support dual mode or quad mode configurations.
To convert a fanned-out port back to 100G, use the no form of the stack-unit portmode command.
Example (stack

13 ports are

DellEMC(conf)# stack-unit 0 port 48 portmode quad
Maximum number of ports that can be made Quad mode in the range <0-63>
is configured. Ports 52,56,60, will be disabled on reload.
Do you wish to continue? [confirm yes/no]:yes
Please save and reset unit 0 for the changes to take effect.

Example of converting a 100G port to 1x40G
DellEMC(conf)#stack-unit 1 module 1 port 1 portmode single speed 40G
Warning: Enabling Single mode on stack-unit 1 module 1 port 1. Please
verify whether the configs related to interface Hu 1/1/1 are cleaned up
before proceeding further.
[confirm yes/no]:yes
Single mode is enabled on stack-unit 1 module 1 port 1
DellEMC(conf)#Sep 18 05:16:49: %STKUNIT1-M:CP %IFMGR-5-DYNAMIC_FANOUT:
Port 1 in slot 1 has been fanned-out
switchport
Place an interface in Layer 2 mode.
Syntax
switchport [[backup interface {interface | port-channel number}] | mode
private-vlan {host | promisucous | trunk}]
To remove an interface from Layer 2 mode and place it in Layer 3 mode, enter the no switchport
command. If a switchport backup interface is configured, first remove the backup configuration. To
remove a switchport backup interface, enter the no switchport backup interface command.
Parameters
backup (OPTIONAL) Use this option to configure a redundant Layer 2 link without using
Spanning Tree. The keyword backup configures a backup port so that if the
primary port fails, the backup port changes to the up state. If the primary later
comes up, it becomes the backup.
interface
interface
(OPTIONAL) Enter any of the following keywords and the interface information:
● For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword
TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port/subport information.
● For a 25-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword twentyFiveGigE
then the slot/port[/subport] information.
● For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the
slot/port/subport information.
● For a 50-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fiftyGigE then the
slot/port/subport information.
● For a 100-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword hundredGigE then
the slot/port information.
port-channel (OPTIONAL) Enter the keywords port-channel if the backup port is a static or
dynamic port channel.
mode (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword mode to set the interface mode.
private-vlan (OPTIONAL) Enter the keywords private-vlan to set the interface mode to
private VLAN mode.
host (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword host to set the private VLAN interface to host
mode.
promiscuous (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword promiscuous to set the private VLAN interface
to promiscuous mode.
