The platforms can be operated in two modes of operations: satellite mode and
standalone mode.
• In satellite mode, it provides port expansion function and the platform is
managed by the 7x50 host. It does not need to be assigned an IP address. User
needs to connect the right ports to the 7x50 and power on the node. The node
automatically fetches the BOF, the image and the configuration required to
operate in satellite mode.
• In standalone mode, the platform provides IP/MPLS functionality and needs to
be an IP address and managed independently.

Note:
• Before using a 1GE SFP in an SFP+ port, the SFP+ port speed must be set to
1000 Mb/s with the config>port>ethernet>speed command; otherwise, an error
message is generated indicating that the SFP is unsupported. For information about
setting the port speed, refer to the Ethernet Port Commands section of the
7210 SAS-M, T, R6, R12, Mxp, Sx, S Interface Configuration Guide.
• SFP+ ports that support SFPs do not support speeds of 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s.
• On the 7210 SAS-Sx 10/100GE 64SFP+ 4CFP4 variant, ports on the front panel are
named 1/1/1 to 1/1/64 for the 64 SFP+ ports, and 1/1/65 to 1/1/68 for the four 100GE
CFP4 ports.
• On the 7210 SAS-Sx 10/100GE 64SFP+ 4QSFP28 variant, ports on the front panel are
named 1/1/1 to 1/1/64 for the 64 SFP+ ports, and 1/1/c1, 1/1/c2, 1/1/c3, and 1/1/c4 for
the four100GE QSFP28 ports.
