Insight interface port-channel

This section addresses details of the insight interface port on different Extreme SLX platforms.

Extreme SLX 9540

Either front-port 0/48 or the insight interface port 0/125 can exist at a given time, as these ports share the same ASIC port.
By default, 0/48 is created.
Insight mode can be configured by means of the connector 0/48 command. A port-channel cannot be made an insight port-channel until insight interface mode is enabled on connector 0/48. Similarly, insight mode cannot be removed on connector 0/48 until the connector is unbound from the insight port-channel.
Upon insight mode configuration, interface 0/48 is dynamically deleted and 0/125 is created.
All the configurations under interface 0/48 are deleted upon insight mode configuration.
An existing port-channel with existing member ports cannot be made an insight interface port-channel.

The following is an example configuration.

device(config)# hardware
device(config-hardware)#
device(config-hardware)# connector 0/48
device(config-connector-0/48)# [no] insight mode
device(config)# interface port-channel 20
device(config-Port-channel-20)# insight enable

Extreme SLX 9640

Either front-port 0/24 or the insight interface port 0/126 can exist at a given time, as these ports share the same ASIC port.
By default, 0/24 is created.
Insight mode can be configured by means of the connector 0/24 command. A port-channel cannot be made an insight port-channel until insight interface mode is enabled on connector 0/24. Similarly, insight mode cannot be removed on connector 0/24 until the connector is unbound from the insight port-channel.
Upon insight mode configuration, interface 0/24 is dynamically deleted and 0/126 is created.
All the configurations under interface 0/24 are deleted upon insight mode configuration.
An existing port-channel with existing member ports cannot be made an insight interface port-channel.
