PORT-EXTENDER CONFIGURATION mode
Dell(conf-pe-0)# cascade interface interface-type slot/port-range
interface interface-type specifies a C9010 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface. The only supported value is
TenGigabitEthernet slot/port-range.
slot/port-range specifies a C9010 10 GbE port, including slot number and either a single port number, a port range, or a
combination of both for auto-LAG configuration.
The range of slot numbers is from 0 to 11. In line-card slots 0 to 9, the range of port numbers is from 0 to 23; in RPM slots 10
and 11, the range of port numbers is from 0 to 3.
Enter a port range with or without spaces; for example, cascade interface tengigabitethernet 0/1-5 or
cascade interface tengigabitethernet 0/1 - 5.
You can enter up to six comma-separated ranges or port numbers; for example, cascade interface
tengigabitethernet 0/1-2,8,10–12,15.
