Enable all 4 10G ports on WS-X45-Sup7-e

[Jignesh Desai]

Hello,

How do I enable ports 3 and 4 on this supervisor module?  I can only get ports 1 and 2 to work by default.  I have a standby Supervisor in SSO mode.  I'm running IOS 15.0.2SG

Thanks

Hi,

Since you are using the sups in redundant mode (SSO), you can only use the first 2 ports on each sup and not all 4 ports.

In redundant mode, the Catalyst 4507R or 4510R  chassis are deployed with dual Sup7-E supervisor modules in a redundant  configuration. Port group 2 becomes automatically inactive on both  supervisor modules when the Catalyst 4500E system detects redundant  modules installed in the chassis.
