Configuring breakout mode for a standalone switch
Static configuration supports certain line cards whereby the SFP mode change must be done in the line-
card power off state to facilitate the re-allocation of line-card-wide ASIC resources among the new set of
interfaces.
For the Brocade VDX 6740 series platforms, the SFP interfaces must be in the shutdown state before
the configuration is allowed.
Perform the following configuration procedure for each SFP.
1. Shut down all interfaces that exist on this SFP.
a) To disable breakout, four Te (10Gbps) interfaces are shut down on the Quad SFP (QSFP).
b) To enable breakout, a single Fo (40Gbps) interface is shut down on the QSFP.
2. Apply the SFP breakout command to the target port(s).
a) Existing interface(s) under the old mode, along with the associated configurations, are
removed from the DCM database. If the target is a QSFP, disabling breakout mode results
in deleting four Te (10 Gbps) interfaces and enabling breakout results in deleting a single Fo
(40 Gbps) interface. The configuration of nontargeted interfaces is not affected.
b) SFP breakout mode is updated in the DCM database.
3. After all SFPs are configured, copy the running-config file to the startup-config file. (This applies to
standalone and fabric cluster modes.)
a)
If you are in standalone mode or fabric cluster mode, you must save the running-config file
to the startup-config file. The SFP configuration must be saved in the startup database,
which is used after you reboot the switch.
b) If you are in logical chassis cluster mode, you do not need to copy the running-config file to
the startup-config file.
4. Reboot the switch
