This command is to change the qe-interface-mode. After changing the mode with this command, user should reboot the system to make it work.
Command Syntax
set interface qe-interface-mode <QSFP | SFP | FLEX>
delete interface qe-interface-mode
Parameter
- QSFP -- QSFP mode. The default is this mode.
- SFP -- 10G*4/25G*4 breakout mode. All 40G/100G are broken to 10G*4/25G*4 ports.
- FLEX -- Enable flexible mode. In this mode, to break some 40G/100G ports as required, but not all 40G/100G ports.
At the same time, all interface names will change to xe-1/1/? or xe-1/1/?.1 if changing mode from QSFP to FLEX; all interface names will change to xe-1/1/? or xe-1/1/?.1, xe-1/1/?.2, xe-1/1/?.3, xe-1/1/?.4 if changing mode from SFP to FLEX.
The following table is an example changing from QSFP to FLEX mode and from SFP to FLEX mode:
QSFP | SFP | FLEX From QSFP | FLEX From SFP |
|---|---|---|---|
| te-1/1/1 | te-1/1/1 | xe-1/1/1 | xe-1/1/1 |
| qe-1/1/49 | te-1/1/49 te-1/1/50 te-1/1/51 te-1/1/52 | xe-1/1/49.1 | xe-1/1/49.1 xe-1/1/49.2 xe-1/1/49.3 xe-1/1/49.4 |
| He-1/1/1 | te-1/1/1 te-1/1/2 te-1/1/3 te-1/1/4 | xe-1/1/1.1 | xe-1/1/1.1 xe-1/1/1.2 xe-1/1/1.3 xe-1/1/1.4 |
| ge-1/1/1 | xe-1/1/1 |
- MAKE SURE to delete all the configurations associated to the unavailable interfaces, Otherwise loading startup configure will fail and then the system will load the default configuration file.
- There isn't command to come back QSPF or SFP mode in FLEX mode. The Only method is to remove /pica/config/pica_startup.boot and /pica/config/pica.conf files and then reboot system. Please Must make your configuration copy before removing /pica/config/pica_startup.boot. The default configuration file will be loaded after pica_startup.boot is removed and restarting system.
Example
This example enables SFP mode in QSFP mode. In the QSPF mode，as below, te-1/1/1 ~ te-1/1/48 are 10G ports. qe-1/1/49 ~ qe-1/1/54 are 40G ports. In the SFP mode, te-1/1/49 ~ te-1/1/52 are 10G *4 ports after 40G qe-1/1/49 breakout.
