We have 7009 with following I/O modules:
N7K-F248XP-25E --
N7K-C7009-FAB-2 - qty 3
N7K-SUP2
I would like to know that each port of N7K-F248XP-25E will get how much bandwidth in shared mode. if we are using only one port group with 4 ports each port with 10gbps is it possible in shared mode to get 40gbps in one port group.
Thanks

Hi,
I'm not sure there is such a thing as shared and dedicated mode on the N7K-F248XP-25E I/O module. I don't have one to test with, but you can see this if you execute the command show interface
That said, with your configuration there is potential for some level of over-subscription.
The N7K-F248XP-25E I/O module uses a Switch on Chip (SoC) architecture with the 48-ports 10-GE ports connected via 12 SoCs, so the "port grouping" is ports 1-4=SoC 1, 5-8=SoC 2 etc.
Each of the SoC has 40-Gbps of capacity to the switch fabric ASIC, which in turn has up to 550-Gbps capacity to the switching fabric. The 550-Gbps fabric capacity is the maximum based on 110-Gbps per slot, per fabric to the installed Fabric 2 Modules. To realise this capacity there must be five Fabric 2 modules installed in the chassis.
From the hardware list you've supplied, you only have three Fabric 2 modules installed and as such you can only achieve a maximum of 330-Gbps per I/O module slot. What this means is that you have 480-Gbps host facing bandwidth, but 330-Gbps Fabric facing bandwidth, so a potential 1.45:1 over-subscription.
You can reduce the over-subscription into the switch fabric by adding additional Fabric 2 modules.

Hi Team,
I have below query for N7K-F248XP-25E=) enhanced line card.
In this line card 48 1 Gig/10 Gig ports in 12 port groups are available (each port group containing 4 physical ports).
a. So can you explain what does port group symbolises and what is the implication of bundling 4 ports in 1 port group.
b. Whether each port can give 10 Gig speed after all 48 ports are populated.
Regards,
Neeraj
