Z9264F-ON port-group profiles

On the Z9264F-ON switch, the port-group profiles determine the available front-panel Ethernet ports and supported breakout interfaces. QSFP28 ports operate only in Ethernet mode. Use the port-group profile to configure breakout interfaces and specify the port speed.

Each pair of odd and even numbered ports is configured as a port group. For example:

hybrid-group        profile       Ports               Mode
port-group1/1/1     restricted    1/1/1               Eth 10g-4x   
                                  1/1/2               Eth Disabled
port-group1/1/2     restricted    1/1/3               Eth 10g-4x   
                                  1/1/4               Eth Disabled
port-group1/1/3     restricted    1/1/5               Eth 10g-4x   
                                  1/1/6               Eth Disabled

                                  1/1/64              Eth 100g-1x 

On the Z9264F-ON switch, the available Ethernet interfaces in a port group depends on the currently configured port-group profile. For details about the supported breakout modes in port-group profiles, see the profile CLI command.

To enable Ethernet interfaces:

1. Configure a Z9264F-ON port group in CONFIGURATION mode. Enter 1/1 for node/slot. The port-group range is from 1 to 32.

   port-group node/slot/port-group

2. Configure the restricted profile in PORT-GROUP mode. This command applies only to the odd-numbered port within the port group, and disables the even-numbered port in the port group.

   profile restricted

3. Configure the port mode for the odd numbered port within the port group.

   port node/slot/port mode Eth port-mode

   • 100g-1x — Reset a port to 100GE mode.
   • 40g-1x — Set a port to 40GE mode for use with a QSFP+ 40GE transceiver.
   • 25g-4x — Split a port into four 25GE interfaces.
   • 10g-4x — Split a port into four 10GE interfaces.
4. Return to CONFIGURATION mode.

   exit

5. Enter Ethernet Interface mode to configure other settings. Enter a single interface, a hyphen-separated range, or multiple interfaces separated by commas.

   interface ethernet node/slot/port[:subport]
