Configuring the Working Mode of a 25GE Interface

Context

The S7X08000 card, by default, works in 10GE interface mode and provides 8*10GE interfaces. To use 25GE interfaces, run the set card port-config-mode 25g-port enable command. In this case, the number of interfaces on the card is 2*25GE, and the last six interfaces are unavailable.

Only the following switch models support this command and the command takes effect only on the S7X08000 card:

S5731-H24T4XC, S5731-H24P4XC, S5731-H48T4XC, and S5731-H48P4XC
S5731S-H24T4XC-A and S5731S-H48T4XC-A
S5732-H24UM2CC and S5732-H48UM2CC

Procedure

Run system-view
The system view is displayed.
Run set card port-config-mode 25g-port enable slot slot-id
The card interface working mode is set to 25GE.

By default, a switch works only in 10GE interface mode.

Verifying the Configuration

Run the display card port-config-mode configuration command in any view to check information about the card interface working mode.
