Usage Information
Use the show discovered-expanders command to verify the auto-discovered Fabric Expanders.
If a Fabric Switching Engine is in SmartFabric mode, it automatically discovers and configures an attached Fabric Expander:
  • Virtual ports on the Fabric Expander and a virtual slot ID are created and mapped to 8x25GE breakout interfaces in FEM mode on the Fabric Engine.
  • The unit ID is automatically discovered.
  • Server traffic is transmitted through the QSFP28-DD uplink on the Fabric Expander to the Fabric Engine.

If the Fabric Switching Engine is in Full Switch mode, configure the switch using the CLI. You must manually configure the unit ID of the Fabric Expander, for more information see Virtual ports. The unit ID is also called the virtual slot ID.
