The built-in 10Gbe ports are currently set to "ethernet," so could they also be used for host connectivity? I currently have a host fibered in, but get no link. I will only ever have three hosts connected at 10Gbe in a very low budget, non-production environment.
I have 10 Gbe SFP+ modules in the switch, and - while it might be a less-than-recommended way of testing - connecting a fiber between xg1 and xg2 gets a link.
Edit: There is no copper in 21-24. Just one fiber in xg1, currently.

Wait, so the "uplink" fiber ports are only 1Gb? That is not what I was told. Well how 'bout that ...
