afair, the 4x1G copper ports are handled using a different asic to the 10G
ports, and this is the sort of thing that might cause problems with LAG
formation.  In general you probably don't want to mix 1G and 10G ports on
this platform, as the internal cell path between 1G and 10G ports will go
into store-n-forward mode.  The platform only has 2M shared buffers, which
doesn't go far in store-n-forward mode.
