1.1.1 Configuring a Combo Port
I. Introduction to Combo port
A Combo port is formed by two Ethernet ports on the panel, one of which is an optical
port and the other is an electrical port. For the two ports forming a Combo port, only one
works at a given time. They are TX-SFP multiplexed. You can specify a Combo port to
operate as an electrical port or an optical port as needed. That is, a Combo port cannot
operate as both an electrical port and an optical port simultaneously.
Combo ports fall into the following two categories:
z
Single Combo port: the two Ethernet ports in the device panel correspond to only
one port view, in which the state switch on the two ports can be realized. A single
Combo port can be a Layer 2 Ethernet port or a Layer 3 Ethernet interface.
z
Dual-Combo port: the two Ethernet ports in the device panel correspond to two
port views. The state switchover can be realized in user’s own port view. A
dual-Combo port can only be a Layer 2 Ethernet port.
