Chapter 8: Configuring the Master Switch
Command Summary
PLATFORM

The following sections briefly describe the commands for configuring the
master and member switches for stacking. For further instructions, refer to
the Software Reference for x950 Switch, AlliedWare Plus Operating
System. After reviewing the commands, go to "General Steps for the
Master Switch" on page 143 to begin the configuration procedures.
This command is used to configure ports 25, 29, 33, and 37 for the
following types of transceivers and cables:
40Gbps QSFP+ transceivers
100Gbps QSFP28 transceivers
40Gbps to 10Gbps breakout cables
Note
You must reset the switch after designating ports for 100Gbps
transceivers or after replacing 100Gbps transceivers with 40Gbps
transceivers or breakout cables.
Allied Telesis recommends configuring these ports during the initial
configuration procedure even if they will not be used for the stack trunk.
The command format is shown here:
platform portmode interface ports 40g|100g|10gx4
The variables are defined here:
The PORTS variable specifies the ports to be configured. The
values are PORTn.0.25, PORTn.0.29, PORTn.0.33, and
PORTn.0.37. The "n" variable is the switch's ID. You can configure
more than one port at a time.
The "40g" parameter configures ports for 40Gbps QSFP+
transceivers. This is the default setting.
The "100g" parameter configures ports for 100Gbps QSFP28
transceivers.
The "10gx4" parameter configures ports for 10Gbps breakout
cables.
This example configures ports 33 and 37 for 100Gbps QSFP28
transceivers:
awplus(config)# platform portmode interface
port1.0.33,port1.0.37 100g
