Description
Administratively enable physical ports, for example, to prevent oversubscription of the line card fabric interface. By default, all available ports are enabled. When disabled, the LED on the affected line card will appear yellow on capable line cards.
(MX Series with 16x10GE MPC, MPC3, MPC4, MPC5, and MPC6) You can disable a subset of the physical ports available on the Packet Forwarding Engines of the 16x10GE MPC, and for MICs installed in MPC3, MPC4, MPC5, and MPC6. Specify either 8 or 12 ports by using this statement. When eight active ports are configured, two ports per Packet Forwarding Engine are disabled, and the LEDs on the MPC appear yellow. When you specify 12 active ports, one port per Packet Forwarding Engine is disabled and the corresponding LED appear yellow. When you do not include this statement in the configuration, all 16 default ports on the MPC are active.
(MX Series with MPC7E-MRATE, MPC8E, and MPC9E) To ensure guaranteed bandwidth by preventing fabric oversubscription, you can disable a subset of the physical ports available on MPC7E-MRATE, MPC8E, and MPC9E. For information about the active ports for MPC7E-MRATE, MPC8E, and MPC9E, see Supported Active Physical Ports on MPC7E-MRATE to Prevent Oversubscription, Supported Active Physical Ports on MIC-MRATE to Prevent Oversubscription.
(MX240, MX480, MX960, MX2010, and MX2020 routers with MIC 10x10GE SFPP and 10x1GE SFP on MPC2E-NG and MPC3E-NG) To ensure guaranteed bandwidth by preventing fabric oversubscription, you can disable a subset of the physical ports available on MPC2E-NG and MPC3E-NG.
(MX204 routers) To ensure guaranteed bandwidth by preventing oversubscription, you can disable a subset of the physical ports available on MX204 routers. For information about the active ports for MX204 routers, see Supported Active Physical Ports on MX204 to Prevent Oversubscription.
Options
