We have a bunch of 65XX with 6148-GE-TX or 6148A-GE-TX boards to connect
a large number of servers and different etherchannels between them.
When i checked the release notes for 12.2SX, i found the following lines
:

"...
WS-X6148A-GE-TX
*Number of ports: 48
Number of port groups: 6
Port ranges per port group: 1-8, 9-16, 17-24, 25-32, 33-40, 41-48 *The
aggregate bandwidth of each port group is 1 Gbps.

WS-X6148-GE-TX
*Number of ports: 48
Number of port groups: 2
Port ranges per port group: 1-24, 25-48
Note WS-X6148-GE-TX, WS-X6148V-GE-TX, and WS-X6148-GE-45AF do not
support these features:
*More than 1 Gbps of traffic per EtherChannel 
..."

Can anyone comment on this ? Does this mean we can get a max of 6 Gig
throughput on a 6148A card and max 2 Gbit on a 6148 ? Or do these
numbers only apply to etherchannels ? I don't seem to find the right
performance figures for these cards.

Thanks for you comments,

Wim Holemans
