10 Gige Interoperability Between Os6800 And Os8800 Switches - Alcatel OmniSwitch 6800 Series Hardware User's Manual

OS6800-XNI-U2 10 Gigabit Expansion Module

10 GigE Interoperability Between OS6800 and OS8800 Switches

In order to have 10 Gigabit uplink operability between OS6800 and OS8800 switches, users must issue the
bridge port 10gig os8800optimized
rately for each 10 Gigabit port. The following examples show operability being enabled on both
10 Gigabit ports installed in an OS6800-U24 chassis:
-> bridge port 1/25 10gig os8800optimized enable
-> bridge port 1/26 10gig os8800optimized enable
For more information on specifying 10 Gigabit slot and port numbers, refer to
Numbering" on page
Note. The bridge port 10gig os8800optimized command applies only to OS6800-48, OS6800-48L, and
OS6800-U24 switches being connected to OS8800 switches via a 10 Gigabit uplink. For more informa-
tion on this command, refer to the CLI Reference Guide.
Viewing Interoperability Status
To view whether a 10 Gigabit port has been optimized for use with OS8800 switches, use the
