40-Gigabit Ethernet PIC Overview

The 40-Gigabit Ethernet PIC with CFP (PD-1XLE-CFP) is a 1-port 40-Gigabit Ethernet Type 4 PIC with C form-factor pluggable transceiver (CFP) optics supported on T640, T1600, and T4000 routers. The 40-Gigabit Ethernet PIC occupies FPC slot 0 or 1 in the Type 4 FPC and it is similar to any regular PIC such as the 4-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet LAN/WAN PIC with XFP (PD-4XGE-XFP) PIC. The CFP information appears under the PIC information in the show command output.

The 40-Gigabit Ethernet PIC with CFP supports flexible Ethernet services encapsulation and MAC accounting.

MAC learning, MAC policing, and Layer 2 rewrite features are not supported.

The 40-Gigabit Ethernet PIC with CFP supports the following features:

  • Encapsulation protocols such as:
    • Layer 2 protocols
      • Ethernet CCC, Ethernet TCC, and Ethernet VPLS
      • VLAN CCC
      • Extended VLAN TCC
      • VLAN VPLS
      • Flexible Ethernet service
    • Layer 3 protocols
      • IPv4
      • IPv6
      • MPLS
  • CFP Multi-Source Agreement (MSA)-compliant management data input/output (MDIO) control features (transceiver dependent).
  • Graceful Routing Engine switchover (GRES) (in all PIC and chassis configurations).
  • Interface creation:
    • When the PIC is brought online, the router creates one interface, et-x/y/0, where x represents the FPC slot number and y represents PIC slot number. The physical interface represents internal Ethernet Packet Forwarding Engines.
    • The FPC slot number ranges from 0 through 7 in T640, T1600, and T4000 routers. The PIC slot numbers are 0 and 1.
    • Packet Forwarding Engine 0 is the physical interface 0, and Packet Forwarding Engine 1 is the physical interface 1.
  • 802.3 link aggregation:
    • The configuration of the 40-Gigabit Ethernet PIC with CFP complies with that of the existing 1-Gigabit or 10-Gigabit Ethernet PIC and aggregated Ethernet interfaces.
    • An aggregate bundle that consists purely of 40-Gigabit Ethernet PICs supports a maximum of 40-Gigabit Ethernet links depending on the system implementation.
