Port Licensing on GigaVUE‑TA200E

On the GigaVUE‑TA200E, only the first 32 out of 64 100Gb ports are enabled. A port license is available to enable an additional 32 ports to expand from 32 ports to 64 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‑TA200E 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 to enable 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‑TA200E:

(config) # port 1/1/c33..c64 params admin enable
