On an EXOS X690 48-port SFP+ Switch, it looks like the 6 slots on the far right have 2 QSFP up to 40gbe, and possibly 4 SFP28 100gbe interfaces? Lets say I want to connect the last port to another x690 and establish MLAG peer relationship over that,...

Curious if the x690 and x590s support vxlan, like an overlay network.Have a project where an HQ and DR datacenter would be connected via these switches and a 10gig wan. Do not just want to span layer 2 over it, even though its only about 60 mile fib...

I have a site that “Default” vlan is vlan 1 on a 3 switch stack (48 port poe 5520). Is it possible to change this globally to another number such as vlan 33 for example, without an outage?if doing so would the ip address and ospf definitions remain?I...

We have a bunch of sites connected via metro ethernet and Extreme 5520's, 450G2's, and x690's at our core. When we establish OSPF we basically add the vlan, the cost the authentication and the area.I've noticed that Exos automatically adds configure...

So it sounds like if you use the 4 QSFP28 ports, the system disables the 2 QSFP 10/40 gig ports?Yeah I would consider using the last two ports with 100gb dac cables between two x690's and create vlan MLAG-ISC tag 4094 for example over that lag. I gu...

Thanks, I'll have to look into that.I have a HQ with x690's as core switching.I have a DR colo with x590's brought into our network via layer 3 ospf, 10gig wan.Next year want to move the servers out of the HQ into yet another colo, was looking at get...

We just upgrade via the CLI. Its easier and we know what to expect. Thanks everyone, even the one that sounded like ChatGPT wrote it. XMC Is Xtreme Management Center, not Xilix or whatever.... Its formally known as netsight, in fact we still call ...

After setting the ospf priority appropriately we are getting the results we expect when testing link failures. Routes take the path we designed as expected now. Thanks for your insight!

Thanks, this is good to know. All our 10 gig is fiber SFP+ and all our 1 gig is copper SFP. I think the all SFP/SFP+ version of the x690 would be a fine switch with the core license for our colo rack where all our servers and connectivity converges...
