In several weeks we will take delivery of two EX4600s to replace two EX4500's at the core of our network. I want to get a jump on the layout of the interfaces before these switches arrive. This is what I do know
- Each EX4600 comes with 24 SFP+ ports
- We are adding two 8 port expansion modules to each switch
- We are adding two DACBO cables to each switch. These breakout two of the 40Gbe ports into a total of eight 10GBe
- These two switches will be in a virtual chassis by connecting two of their QSFP+ ports
What I am not sure of are the interface names. The 24 SFP+ ports seem straight forward using Media-SwitchInStack/0/PortNumber
Port numbers range between 0 and 23
For example, xe-0/0/10
What I am not sure of are the interface names for the two expansion modules, the DACBO cabling, or the QSFP+ ports connected to form the virtual chassis. I have read these two articles multiple times and am still confused
