FAQs

Q: Does this line card support 1G SFPs in the SFP+ ports?
A: Support for 1G operation varies by hardware revision and software; consult platform release notes for your chassis and supervisor.

Q: What is the difference between DFC4 and DFC4XL?
A: Both provide distributed forwarding; the XL variant offers expanded table scale (larger FIB/ACL/NetFlow capacities).

Q: Do I need a specific supervisor for -2T line cards?
A: Yes. -2T line cards require compatible supervisors (e.g., Sup2T family) and supported chassis. Verify compatibility before installation.
