efa inventory device interface set-breakout

Breaks a port into multiple interfaces, such as breaking one 40G port into four 10G ports.

Syntax

efa inventory device interface set-breakout --ip device-ip --if-type ethernet --if-name if-list --mode { 1x10g | 1x25g | 1x40g | 1x100g | 2x40g | 2x50g | 4x10g | 4x25g}

Parameters

--ip device-ip
Specifies the IP address of the device.
--if-type ethernet
Specifies that the interface type is Ethernet.
--if-name if-list
Specifies a comma-separated list of interface names.
--mode { 1x10g | 1x25g | 1x40g | 1x100g | 2x40g | 2x50g | 4x10g | 4x25g}
Specifies the number of ports you want.

Usage Guidelines

In SLX-OS, you can use the show running-config hardware command to see whether breakout mode is configured for a device.

The new breakout interfaces you create are identified by the name of the original interface followed by a suffix.

Examples

This example breaks interface 0/52 into four 10g ports.

# efa inventory device interface set-breakout –-ip 10.x.x.x 
–-if-type eth –-if-name 0/52 –-mode 4x10g
