GigaVUE‑TA25EA

The GigaVUE‑TA25E has forty-eight (48) 25Gb/10Gb/1Gb and eight (8) 100Gb/40Gb ports enabled. It does not require a port license. A twenty-four (24) port GigaVUE‑TA25E version, called the GigaVUE‑TA25EA, is available with only the first twenty-four (24) 25Gb/10Gb/1Gb ports active. The GigaVUE‑TA25EA product code is TA25EA, and the GigaVUE‑TA25E product code is TA25E. A license is needed to expand the GigaVUE‑TA25EA to include all forty-eight (48) 25Gb/10Gb/1Gb ports as well as the eight (8) 100Gb /40Gb ports.

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‑TA25EA, 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‑TA25EA:

(config) # port 1/1/c1..c8 params admin enable

(config) # port 1/1/x25..x48 params admin enable
