Usage
Information
You can split a 100G port into two 50G, one 40G, four 10G, or four 25G ports.
You can use the stack-unit portmode command to dynamically fan-out 100G ports into two 50G,
one 40G, four 10G, or four 25G ports and vice-versa without reloading a switch.
The port must be in a default configuration before it can be split. As the 40G100G port is lost in the
configuration when the port is split, ensure that you remove the port from other L2/L3 feature
configurations.
You cannot use this command if you use an LR4 optics.
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.
