Removing Bridge Port Extender from a Cascade Example

The following example shows how to remove a bridge port extender (BPE) from a cascade.

This example removes the BPE at slot 101 in a four-tier cascade and connects the BPE at slot 100 to the BPE at slot 102 (see Removing BPE from Cascade).

Removing BPE from Cascade

Unconfigure the bottom BPE:
```
# unconfigure vpex port 102:51 slot
```
Unconfigure the next BPE from the bottom:
```
# unconfigure vpex port 101:51 slot
```
Unconfigure the BPE being removed:
```
# unconfigure vpex port 100:51 slot
```
Disconnect BPE 101, and connect BPE 100 to BPE 102.
Re-configure the BPE at slot 100:
```
# configure vpex port 100:51 slot 102
```
Re-configure the BPE at slot 102:
```
# configure vpex port 102:51 slot 103
```
Remove the slot assignment (101) from the removed BPE:
```
# unconfigure slot 101
```
