Creating an 8x Port: Externally-managed 12200
Externally-managed 12200 switches are shipped with all ports having a port width of
1x/4x/8x. When connecting an externally-managed 12200 to another switch that has
8x ports defined (for example, another externally-managed 12200, or a 12800 switch
leaf module), links come up automatically as 8x if the ports are cabled such that 8x
DUOs are formed on both sides of the connection. For example, if ports 1 and 19 of an
externally-managed 12200 is connected to ports 1 and 19 of another externally-
managed 12200, an 8x link is created.
