Safety information
To avoid bodily injury or damage to the module, read the following information carefully before you operate the module. In practice, safety information includes but is not limited to what are mentioned in this document.
General operating safety
To avoid bodily injury or damage to the module, follow these guidelines when you operate the module:
· Only H3C authorized or professional engineers are allowed to install, service, repair, operate, or upgrade the module.
· Place the module on a clean, stable table or floor for servicing.
· Keep the module clean and dust-free, and do not place the module in a wet environment or let liquid flow into the module.
· When using tools for servicing, be sure to follow the operation instructions.
· Before powering on the module, make sure the server is grounded reliably.
· Make sure that you move or place the module evenly and slowly.
· To avoid being burnt, allow the module and its internal modules to cool before touching them.
· For adequate heat dissipation of the server, install a filler panel in the slot if the module is not installed.
Electrical safety
To avoid bodily injury or damage to the module, follow these guidelines:
· Verify whether the operation area has potential risks carefully, such as an ungrounded chassis, unreliable grounding, or wet floor.
· Do not work alone when you service the module with power present.
· To avoid electric shocks, do not touch the power supply directly or indirectly through conductive objects.
Laser safety
WARNING! Disconnected optical fibers or transceiver modules might emit invisible laser light. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments when the module is operating |
ESD prevention
Preventing electrostatic discharge
To prevent electrostatic damage, follow these guidelines:
· Transport or store the module in an antistatic bag.
· Place the module on a grounded surface before removing it from its antistatic bag.
· Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
· You must take ESD preventions before touching the electrostatic-sensitive components.
Grounding methods to prevent electrostatic discharge
The following are grounding methods that you can use to prevent electrostatic discharge:
· Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
· Take adequate personal grounding measures, including wearing antistatic clothing and static dissipative shoes.
· Use conductive field service tools.
· Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating work mat.

Procedure
For the configuration procedure, see the configuration guide and command reference for H3C UniServer BX1010E switch module.
Splitting a 100-GE interface and combining breakout interfaces into a 100-GE interface
You can use a 100-GE interface on the switch module as a single interface. To improve port density, reduce costs, and improve network flexibility, you can also split a 100-GE interface into four breakout interfaces.
The breakout interfaces split from a 100-GE interface support the same configuration and features as common physical interfaces, except that they are numbered differently.
For example:
· You can split 100-GE interface HundredGigE 1/1/9 into four 25-GE interfaces Twenty-FiveGigE 1/1/9:1 through Twenty-FiveGigE 1/1/9:4.
· You can split 100-GE interface HundredGigE 1/1/9 into four 10-GE interfaces Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/1/9:1 to Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/1/9:4.
If you need higher bandwidth on a single interface, you can combine the breakout interfaces into a 100-GE interface.
By default, a 100-GE interface is not split and operates as a single interface.
Prerequisites
· The switch module has been powered on. For information about powering on the switch module, see "Powering on the module."
· You have accessed the switch module. For information about accessing the switch module, see "Accessing the switch module."
· Be sure that you are clear about the restrictions and guidelines for splitting and combining interfaces. For more information, see the configuration guides and command references for the H3C UniServer BX1010E switch module.
· To split a 100-GE interface into four 25-GE interfaces, you need a 100-GE transceiver module or cable that support splitting for connection. To split a 100-GE interface into four 10-GE interfaces, you need a 40-GE transceiver module or cable that support splitting for connection.
Splitting a 100-GE interface into four 25-GE interfaces
1. Enter the CLI of the switch module.
2. Enter system view.

4. Execute the using tengige command to split the 100-GE interface into four 10-GE breakout interfaces.
[Sysname-HundredGigE1/1/9] using tengige
The interface HundredGigE1/1/9 will be deleted. Continue? [Y/N]:y
Combining breakout interfaces into a 100-GE interface
1. Enter the CLI of the switch module.
2. Enter system view.
<Sysname> system-view
3. Enter the view of any breakout interface.
¡ If the 100-GE interface is split into 25-GE breakout interfaces, execute the interface twenty-fivegige command to enter the view of any 25-GE breakout interface. Twenty-FiveGigE 1/1/9:1 is used in this example.
[Sysname] interface twenty-fivegige 1/1/9:1
¡ If the 100-GE interface is split into 10-GE breakout interfaces, execute the interface ten-gigabitethernet command to enter the view of any 10-GE breakout interface. Ten-GigabitEthernet 1/1/9:1 is used in this example.
[Sysname] interface ten-gigabitethernet 1/1/9:1
4. Execute the using hundredgige command to combine breakout interfaces into a 100-GE interface.
¡ To combine 25-GE breakout interfaces into a 100-GE interface:
[Sysname-Twenty-FiveGigE1/1/9:1] using hundredgige
The interfaces Twenty-FiveGigE 1/1/9:1 through Twenty-FiveGigE 1/1/9:4 will be deleted. Continue? [Y/N]:y
¡ To combine 10-GE breakout interfaces into a 100-GE interface:
[Sysname-Ten-GigabitEthernet1/1/9:1]using hundredgige
