4. Connect the traffic-port cables to the 4408 platform, and take into consideration that each port
uses a specific CPU core. Therefore, to ensure optimal performance, input traffic and output
traffic should not use the same core. the four cores are numbered 0–3. If you are going to use
in-band management, refer to Table 9 - Port-to-Core Usage with In-Band Management, page
39. If you are going to use the port labeled 6/MNG 1 for out-of-band management, refer to
Table 10 - Port-to-Core Usage with Out-of-Band Management, page 39.
