VDX6940-port configuration

[goldtel]

My customer has a VDX6940-64s and the 10gig ports were activated when they activated the port, how do you unassign a license from a port and reassign it to a different port?

Mike,
thank you for the help, this worked and the customer is up an running, it is appreciated.

Goldtel,

This is done within the "dpod" configuration. To release a dynamic port license, first ensure that the port is shutdown and then use the following:

code:

conf t
dpod [port_number]
release

To manually reserve a port, use the following:

code:

conf t
dpod [port_number]
reserve

example:

code:

sw0# show run
...
dpod 3/0/1
 reserve
!
dpod 3/0/2
 reserve
!
dpod 3/0/3
 reserve
!
dpod 3/0/4
!
sw0# conf t
Entering configuration mode terminal
sw0(config)# int te 3/0/2
sw0(conf-if-te-3/0/2)# shutdown
2019/04/17-14:13:18, [NSM-1020], 80814, SW/0 | Active | DCE, INFO, sw0,  Interface TenGigabitEthernet 3/0/2 is administratively down.
2019/04/17-14:13:18, [NSM-1003], 80815, SW/0 | Active | DCE, INFO, sw0,  Interface TenGigabitEthernet 3/0/2 is link down. 
sw0(conf-if-te-3/0/2)# exit
sw0(config)# dpod 3/0/2
sw0(config-dpod-3/0/2)# release
sw0(config-dpod-3/0/2)# exit
sw0(config)# dpod 3/0/4
sw0(config-dpod-3/0/4)# reserve
sw0(config-dpod-3/0/4)# end
sw0# show run
...
dpod 3/0/1
 reserve
!
dpod 3/0/2
!
dpod 3/0/3
 reserve
!
dpod 3/0/4
 reserve
!

I hope this addresses your issue.
