Deployment Guide

● On a device, fan-out profile constructs automatically with default 24 ports
(0,8,16,24,32,36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,68,72,76,80,84,88,92,100,108,116,124) . These ports can be changed to 40G to 10G
mode or vice-versa without reload.
● When a non-supported profile release is upgraded to a supported profile release, the fan-out configured ports get
automatically included in the profile. In fan-out mode, if a system is upgraded with 25 or 26 ports, only 24 ports get upgraded
to fan-out mode. The rest of the ports are put to default 40G mode.
● In stacking, configure profile first before provisioning for new units. Otherwise it is mandatory to reload for profile to take
effect.
● If there is a mismatch in fan-out profile between master and the new member in stacking, the master re-configures the
member with its quad-mode profile, quad-mode, and stack-group configuration and then reset the member. To avoid stack
split during profile mismatch, the master does stack group configurations of the new member.
To configure the quad-port-profile, use the following command:
CONFIGURATION mode
stack-unit stack-unit number slot slot-number port port-number portmode quad
The defaults ports are:
0,8,16,24,32,36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,68,72,76,80,84,88,92,100,108,116,124
To display the Fan-out capability profile, use the following show command:
show system stack-unit stack-unit number quad-port-profile

profile command.
