Stacking Flex10 with 1/10G ENet modules.

[The Brit]

I have a c7000 enclosure which had 4 1/10G VC ENet modules in Bays 1, 2, 3, & 4. I upgraded bays 1 & 2 to Flex10.

VC Firmware is 2.32 on Flex10 and 2.30 on 1/10G VC Modules.

How to I set up/connect the stacking links between these 4 modules to make then all part of the VC Domain.??

I have 2 CX4 cables, and also the 1G SPF (for the Flex10 if necessary)

I was expecting the CX4 cables to just link up. Is there a configuration step I am missing.??

Thanks in advance.

Dave.

Dave:

CX4 cables should connect and automatically form stacking links.

Make sure on the Flex-10 modules you do not have an SFP installed in the X1 shared media port because if you do, it disables the CX4 port X1.

Thanks for the information about X1, probably saved me problems later in the game.

However SFP in X1 was not my problem. I had forgotten to enable EBIPA on the new VC modules. As soon as I did that, the stacking links connected.
