GigaVUE‑TA25A

The GigaVUE‑TA25 has 25Gb/10Gb/1Gb and eight 100Gb/40Gb ports enabled. It does not require a port license. A twenty-four (24) port GigaVUE‑TA25 version, called the GigaVUE‑TA25A is available with only the first 24 25Gb/10Gb/1Gb ports active. The GigaVUE‑TA25A product code is 132-00FK and the GigaVUE‑TA25 product code is 132-00FJ. A license is needed to expand the GigaVUE‑TA25A to include all 48 25Gb/10Gb/1Gb ports as well as the eight 100Gb /40Gb.

Enabling Additional Ports

Contact your Sales Representative for information on obtaining a license key. Once you have obtained the license key for additional ports on GigaVUE‑TA25A use the following command:

Copy 
(config) # license install box-id <box ID> key <license key> 

where:

■   box ID is the box ID of the GigaVUE TA Series node
■   license key is the license key obtained for the purposes of enabling additional ports

Use the following procedure to enable ports before starting to issue commands in the CLI:

1.   Connect to the console port as described in the previous section.
2. Wait at least two minutes after the system prompt appears for the system to be initialized and then switch to Configure mode.

The GigaVUE TA Series node provides three command entry modes, each with increasingly powerful rights – Standard, Enable, and Configure. The jump-start script is only available in Configure mode:

a. Type en <Enter> to switch to Enable mode.

The system prompt changes from [hostname] > to [hostname] #.

b. Type config t <Enter> to switch to Config mode.

The system prompt changes from [hostname] # to [hostname] (config) #.

3. Reset the terminal settings to match the current window with the following command:

terminal resize

4. Use the port command with the admin argument to enable ports. For example, the following two commands enable all available ports on a fully licensed GigaVUE-TA25A:

(config) # port 1/1/q1..q4 params admin enable(config) # port 1/1/x24..x48 params admin enable

5. Save your changes so that ports come up automatically at the next reboot:
