Combo SFP Ports
The OS6800-24L provides four combo SFP slots for 1000Base-X high-
speed connections.
By default, when an SFP is installed in a combo port, it takes over the port
number of the corresponding RJ-45 Ethernet port. In other words, if an SFP
is installed in the slot labeled 24, Ethernet port 24 is no longer available and
cannot be used for 10/100/1000 traffic. This default setting is referred to as
"preferred fiber." Refer to "Configuring Ethernet Ports" in the Network
Configuration Guide for detailed information, including steps for configur-
ing combo port settings.
