Chapter 22 Configuring Generation 2 and Generation 3 Switching Modules
Port Groups and Port Rate Modes
Port Rate Modes
In Generation 2 and Generation 3 modules, you can configure the port rate modes. The port rate mode
configuration is used to determine the bandwidth allocation for ports in a port group. Two port rate
modes are supported:
• Dedicated Rate Mode—A port is allocated required fabric bandwidth to sustain line traffic at the
maximum operating speed configured on the port. For more information, see the “Dedicated Rate
Mode” section on page 22-6
• Shared Rate Mode—Multiple ports in a port group share data paths to the switch fabric and share
bandwidth. For more information, see the “Shared Rate Mode” section on page 22-7.
Note In Generation 1 modules, you cannot configure the port rate modes. The mode is determined implicitly
based on the port mode and line card type.

dedicated or shared mode. All the other ports can operate at a maximum of 4 Gbps in shared mode or dedicated mode.
