Interface Naming Conventions

The switch supports physical and logical interfaces. Interfaces are identified by their type and
the interface number. The physical ports are Gigabit interfaces and are numbered on the
front panel. You configure the logical interfaces by using the local browser interface.

The following types of ports are supported:

Ports g1-g4 are Gigabit ports.

Ports mg5-mg6 are Multi-Gigabit Ethernet ports, each of which supports a maximum
speed of 2.5

Gbps.

Ports mg7-mg8 are Multi-Gigabit Ethernet ports, each of which supports a maximum
speed of 5 Gbps.

Port xmg9 is a Multi-Gigabit Ethernet port that supports a maximum speed of 10 Gbps.

Port xg10 is a fiber port in which you can install an SFP+ module.

The following table describes the naming convention for all interfaces on the switch.
