Partitions 100G and 40G ports into multiple partition speeds, and partitions 25G ports into a single 10G port for the ExtremeSwitching 5520 platform.
| port_list | Specifies one or more ports. |
| all | Specifies all ports. |
| 1x100G | Specifies partitioning a 100G port into a single 100G port (applies only to switches with 100G port(s)). This option is not available on the ExtremeSwitching 5520 platform. |
| 1x40G | Specifies partitioning a 40G port into a single 40G port (applies only to switches with 40G port(s)). |
| 2x50G | Specifies partitioning a 100G port into a two 50G port (applies only to switches with 100G port(s)). |
| 3x1G | Specifies partitioning a 5720-VIM-6YE into a three
consecutive 1G ports. Apply 3x1G option on the first VIM port (port 27 or 30 for 24-port models and ports 51 or 55 for 48-port models). All three ports (ports 27-29 or 30-32 for 24-port models and ports 51-53 and 54-56 on 48-port models) on the VIM become 1G ports when applying this option. |
| 3x10G | Specifies partitioning a 5720-VIM-6YE into a three
consecutive 10G ports. Apply 3x10G option on the first VIM port (port 27 or 30 for 24-port models and ports 51 or 55 for 48-port models). All three ports (ports 27-29 or 30-32 for 24-port models and ports 51-53 and 54-56 on 48-port models) on the VIM become 10G ports when applying this option. |
| 3x25G | Specifies partitioning a 5720-VIM-6YE into a three
consecutive 25G ports. Apply 3x25G option on the first VIM port (port 27 or 30 for 24-port models and ports 51 or 55 for 48-port models). All three ports (ports 27-29 or 30-32 for 24-port models and ports 51-53 and 54-56 on 48-port models) on the VIM become 25G ports when applying this option. |
| 4x10G |
Specifies partitioning a 40G port into a four 10G port (applies only to switches with 40G port(s)). Specifies partitioning a 25G port into a single 10G port. Apply 4x10G option on the first 5520 VIM port (port 33 for 24-port models and port 57 for 48-port models). All four ports on the 5520 VIM become 10G ports when applying this option. |
| 4x25G |
Specifies partitioning a 100G port into a four 25G port. Also specifies changing a 25G port that was partitioned to a 10G port to back to 25G. Apply 4x25G option on the first 5520 VIM port (port 33 for 24-port models and port 57 for 48-port models). All four ports on the 5520 VIM become 25G ports when applying this option. |
For 5520-VIM-4YE, 25G ports default to 1x25G.
For 5520 QSFP28 ports the default partition is 40G.
For 5720-VIM-2CE ports default to 1x100G.
For 5720-VIM-6YE ports default to 3x25G.
For the ExtremeSwitching 5520 platform, the QSFP28 ports in Ethernet mode can be configured for 40G (default), 2x50G, 4x25G or 4x10G. These ports are normally configured for stacking. To use these for Ethernet, you must disable stacking support.
For the ExtremeSwitching 5520-VIM-4YE module you can switch all four ports on the VIM from 25G to 10G using the 4x25G option.
The following example partitions port 6:1 into four 10G ports:
# configure ports 6:1 partition 4x10G
This command was available in ExtremeXOS 12.6.
This command was expanded to include partitioning 100G ports in ExtremeXOS 22.2
Dynamic partitioning (no reboot required) was added in ExtremeXOS 30.2.
| Switch model | Port bandwidth | Port partitions |
|---|---|---|
| 5520 (all models) QSFP28 |
100 Gb | One QSFP28 port with one of the following:
Note: These
ports do not support 1x100Gb
|
| 5720 (all models) U1 and U2 ports |
100Gb | One U1 or U2 port with one of the following:
|
| 5720-VIM-6YE | 25G | The 5720-VIM-6YE has two speed groups, each with three ports that
can be partitioned with the following:
|
| 5720-VIM-2CE | 100G | The 5720-VIM-2CE has two ports, each of which can be partitioned
with the following:
