[c-nsp] ME Series for a LAN/Server Farm

[Abello, Vinny]

JFYI, all ports (with the exception of GigiabitEthernet0 which is the
management port and doesn't have uni/nni) on the ME3600X are defaulted to
nni in the running-config.

interface GigabitEthernet0
 no ip address
 shutdown
 negotiation auto
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
 port-type nni
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/2
 port-type nni
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/3
 port-type nni

.........etc,

interface TenGigabitEthernet0/1
port-type nni
!
interface TenGigabitEthernet0/2
port-type nni

Correct. In older versions of the IOS you were limited to the number of nni
ports but that has changed.

Double check the specs on these.  If I am remembering correctly, there
is a limit on some ME switches to the number of NNI ports you can
enable.  (I believe it was 4).


Also be aware of the power supplies being fixed.  As in, you cannot
swap an AC for a DC, nor are they field replaceable.
