There are four 10/25 GbE ports that use
enhanced small form factor pluggable (SFP28) optical connectors, shown as follows:

network ports
The ports may need to be configured to be
compatible with the network switch that they are attached to using the command
ethernet-link-config under the following circumstances:
- Forward Error Correction (FEC): When using 25GbE connection mode on
the server, Forward Error Correction (FEC) is enabled by default. Make sure that FEC is
configured on each port of the network switch. If the network switch does not support
the correct type of FEC, it may be necessary to disable FEC at both the VSP One File server port and switch
port.
See the CLI man page, ethernet-link-config for more details on FEC.
- 10GbE speed. If the network switch only supports 10GbE, the speed
will need to be configured accordingly in the VSP One File server using the
ethernet-link-config command.
See the CLI man page, ethernet-link-config for more details.
Once connected, each 10/25GbE port has two indicator LEDs; one green/amber and one amber. These LEDs provide link and network activity status information as follows:
| Status/Activity (per port) | Meaning | |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Green (solid) | 25 Gbps link present. |
| Amber (solid) | 10 Gbps link present. | |
| Off | No 10/25 Gbps link. | |
| Activity | Amber (flashing) | 10/25 Gbps link activity |
