I/O module population rules
DD6300, DD6800, and DD9300 systems have eight slots for I/O modules. Slots 0, 1, 2,
and 7 are reserved. Slots 3, 4, 5, and 6 support host interface I/O modules. The
maximum supported number of any type of host interface I/O module is four.
Note
A maximum of three Quad Port 10 GBase-T I/O modules are supported in slots 3-6
because of the mandatory Quad Port 10 GBase-T I/O module in slot 1.
The following table assigns rules for populating the I/O modules.
