Channelizing Interfaces
The port panel of an ACX5096 supports up to a maximum of 104 logical 10 GbE ports that can be distributed
over 96 small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+) and 8 quad small-form factor pluggable plus (QSFP+)
transceivers . Because of an 104 port restriction, only two of the eight QSFP+ can be channelized. Depending
on how you set the system mode for channelization, the behavior of channelization for the QSFP+ changes.
The following system modes are available for the ACX5096 router:
•
Non-oversubscribed
All 96 SFP+ ports on the router (PIC 0) are supported. In this mode, the eight QSFP+ ports are not
supported and cannot be channelized. There is no packet loss for packets of any size in this mode.
•
Default mode
All 96 SFP+ ports on the router (PIC 0) are supported. QSFP+ ports 96 and 100 can be channelized. If
ports 96 and 100 are channelized, the interfaces on ports 97, 98, 99, 101, 102, and 103 are disabled.
Chassis Status LEDs on an ACX5000 Router
The ACX5000 routers has four status LEDs on the FRU side of the chassis, next to the management ports
(see Figure 11 on page 53).
