Huawei NetEngine 8000 M4 License Issue
This article explains about the NE8000 M4 license issue.
The NetEngine 8000 M4 supports four groups (groups 1, 2, 3, and 4), each Group consists of 1 main port and 4 corresponding sub-ports. Main port 0, the corresponding sub-port is 4.6.8.10; main port 1, the corresponding sub-port is 5.7.9.11; main port 2, the corresponding sub-port is 12.14.16.18; main port 3, the corresponding sub-port is 13.15.17.19
| Group | Main Port | Sub-port |
|---|---|---|
| Group1 | 0 | 4, 6, 8, 10 |
| Group2 | 1 | 5, 7, 9, 11 |
| Group3 | 2 | 12, 14, 16, 18 |
| Group4 | 3 | 13, 15, 17, 19 |
Each group can switch between their six modes independently. In each mode, the capabilities of the four sub-ports vary according to the port capability of the main port, as shown in the following table.
NetEngine 8000 M4‘s interface bandwidth modes:
| Mode | Main Port | Sub-port |
|---|---|---|
| Mode 1 | 100GE (50GE/40GE auto-sensing) | 4 x GE |
| Mode 2 | 4 x 25GE | 4 x GE |
| Mode 3 | 50GE | 4 x 10GE/GE ports. Note that 10GE ports must be switched between the LAN and WAN modes at the same time. |
| Mode 4 | 40GE | 4 x 10GE/GE ports. Note that 10GE ports must be switched between the LAN and WAN modes at the same time. |
| Mode 5 | 4 x 10GE | 4 x 10GE/GE ports. Note that 10GE ports must be switched between the LAN and WAN modes at the same time. |
| Mode 6 | Not used | 4 x 25GE/10GE/GE ports. Note that 10GE ports must be switched between the LAN and WAN modes at the same time. |
Also, 1*100G, requires 2*50G RTU activation.
For example: 2*100GE needs to be equipped with 4*50GE RTU license. You can use mode1 type and the main port 0-1 or 2-3 to run 100G; you can also use mode3 and the four ports 0-3 run 4*50GE respectively.
