Usage
Information
The default quad port profile configuration includes all ports except the top four left ports and the
top four right ports in the switch. As a result, you cannot fan-out these switch ports using the stack-
unit stack-unit-number portmode command when the ports are in the default quad port profile
configuration.
You can change this default quad port profile configuration using the stack-unit stack-unit-
number port port-numbers portmode quad command and include the top four left ports and
top four right ports in your new profile. When you change the default profile, you can dynamically fan-out
the ports that are part of the new profile using the stack-unit stack-unit-number portmode
quad command.
However, your new profile must exclude four ports from the first 16 port groups and four ports from the
last 16 port groups in the switch. You cannot fan-out these excluded ports as the quad port profile can
only have 12 ports in the first 16 port groups and 12 ports in the last 16 port groups.
For the new quad port profile configuration to take effect, you must first save changes and then reload
the switch.
