Selecting the Uplink Port on a Supervisor Engine 7L-E
With Cisco IOS Release 15.0(2)SG, the SFP+/SFP uplink modes on Supervisor Engine 7L-E (WS-X45-SUP-7L-E) have
changed. The number of uplink ports now depends on the supervisor engine mode (single or redundant) and the uplink mode
configuration (1-Gigabit or 10-Gigabit). To configure the uplink mode, use the hw-module uplink select [gigabitethernet/
tengigabitethernet] command, as follows:
Switch(config)# hw-module uplink select?
gigabitethernet Select the gigabit uplinks
tengigabitethernet Select the 10G uplinks
Note Supervisor Engine 7L-E is not supported on a ten-slot chassis. USB device and SD card support is
applicable to Supervisor Engine 7-E and Supervisor Engine 8-E only.
Note Supervisor Engine 8-E is supported on a 10-slot chassis.
Single Supervisor Mode
In single supervisor mode, WS-X45-SUP-7L-E supports the uplink configuration of at most either two 10-Gigabit or four
1-Gigabit ports (Table 9-5).
