Configuring Port Breakout for Part of the Interfaces

We can change qe-interface-mode from QSFP to FLEX mode, then breakout part of the 40GE or 100GE interfaces under FLEX mode as required.

Step1         Change qe-interface-mode from QSFP to FLEX mode.

              a                   a)   Change qe-interface-mode from QSFP to FLEX mode.

Code Block

...

admin@XorPlus# set interface qe-interface-mode FLEX


NOTE:

If the current qe-interface-mode is SFP mode, you need to change the port mode to QSFP mode first.

                                  b)   Restart PICOS to make the setting take effect.

...

Code Block
admin@XorPlus:~$ sudo systemctl restart picos

Step2         In flexible mode, split the port as required.

...

   a)   Split the port as required.

              set                    set interface gigabit-ethernet <port-name> breakout <10g-4x | 25g-4x | donot>

.

NOTE:

  •   This command can only be run in FLEX mode.
  •   The 40GE interface can be split into four 10 Gigabit Ethernet sub-interfaces. The 100GE can be split into four 25 Gigabit Ethernet sub-interfaces or split into four 10 Gigabit Ethernet sub-interfaces

...

  • .
  • When performing the port breakout operation, before restarting the system, you need to manually delete the configurations of the unavailable interfaces in the new mode, to make sure that the configuration file can be loaded normally when the system boots up.

            b)   Restart PICOS to make the setting take effect.

...

Code Block
admin@XorPlus:~$ sudo systemctl restart picos

Step3         Verify the configuration.

...

  •   Use run show interface qe-interface-mode command to check the qe-interface-mode.
Code Block
admin@XorPlus# run show interface qe-interface-mode

...


qe-interface-mode:FLEX

...

  •   After system startup, run run show interface brief command to view the interface information
