Enabling the 10-GbE ports on an FX8-24 blade

Use the following procedure to enable the 10-GbE ports on an FX8-24 blade:

1. Connect to the Brocade Backbone and log in using an account with admin permissions, or an

account with OM permissions for the license class of RBAC commands.

2. Use the licenseAdd command to add the 10G license.

3. Use the licenseShow command to check the results of automatic license assignment. If the

results are not what you intended, use the licenseSlotCfg command to reassign the license to
the desired FX8-24 blades.

4. Use the licenseShow command to verify the license.

5. Use the bladeCfgGeMode

--

set mode command to configure the GbE port mode for the

FX8-24 blade. To enable the 10-GbE ports, set the mode parameter to one of the following:

10g—Enables both 10-GbE ports, disables all ten 1-GbE ports.

dual—Enables the xge0 port (but not xge1) and also enables all ten 1-GbE ports.

Example of assigning a 10G license on an FX8-24 extension blade and enabling both 10-GbE ports

This example assigns a license to slot 7 on a DCX 8510-4 Backbone and enables both 10-GbE
ports on the FX8-24 blade in that slot. In this example, the license was first automatically assigned
to slot 1.
