    Handling Oversubscription on a 10-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet LAN/WAN PIC

    Table 1 lists the scenarios of handling oversubscription on the 10-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet LAN/WAN PIC with SFP+ (model number PD-5-10XGE-SFPP) in oversubscribed mode and for different combinations of port groups and active ports on the PIC.

    Number of Port Groups with Two Active Ports (A)

    Number of Port Groups with One Active Port (B)

    Total Number of Ports Used on PIC (C = Ax2 + B)

    Status of Oversubscription and Throughput

    0

    1

    1

    Oversubscription is not active. Each port will receive 10 Gbps throughput.

    0

    2

    2

    Oversubscription is not active. Each port will receive 10 Gbps throughput.

    0

    5

    5

    Oversubscription is not active. Each port will receive 10 Gbps throughput.

    1

    0

    2

    Oversubscription is active. Each port will receive 5 Gbps throughput (with default shaper configuration).

    1

    4

    6

    Oversubscription is active for the port group that has two active ports. Each port in this port group will receive 5 Gbps throughput (with default shaper configuration).

    For the remaining four ports, oversubscription is not active. Each port will receive 10 Gbps throughput.

    3

    0

    6

    Oversubscription is active. Each port will receive 5 Gbps throughput (with default shaper configuration).

    5

    0

    10

    Oversubscription is active on all 10 ports (5 port groups). Each port will receive 5 Gbps throughput (with default shaper configuration).
