Enabling the Interfaces (CLI)
By default:
•
Ethernet traffic interfaces are disabled and must be manually enabled.
•
The Ethernet management interface is enabled.
•
Radio interfaces are enabled.
Note
In release 10.6, only Ethernet Slot 1, Port 7 is supported, along with the radio and management
interfaces. In release 10.9, Ethernet Slot 1, Ports 3 through 7 are supported.
The QSFP port (Port 4), is displayed as follows.
•
In a 4x1/10G configuration the QSFP port can provide four Ethernet interfaces: Eth3, Eth4, Eth 5, and Eth6. In
this configuration, a QSFP transceiver is attached to the QSFP port, and an MPO-MPO cable is connected
between the transceiver and a splitter on the other side of the link. The splitter splits the traffic between four
Ethernet cables connecting the splitter to the customer equipment.
To enable or disable an interface, enter the following command in root view:
root> platform if-manager set interface-type <interface-type> slot <slot>
port <port> admin <admin>
To display the status of all the interfaces in the unit, enter the following command in root view:
root> platform if-manager show interfaces
