Awesome thanks!<br />
<br />
Additionally, is there a way to look at the stats of a slot to see if you are hitting the limit?

I am looking for some deeper detail on slot capacity inside the 4510R-E with a Supervisor 6e, centered around the differences between classic and &quot;E&quot; series line card use.<br />
<br />
Cisco states the following for E and Classic line cards:<br />
<br />
WS-X4648-RJ45-E<br />
24 gigabits per-slot capacity<br />
Bandwidth is allocated across eight 6-port groups, providing 3 Gbps per port group (2:1)<br />
<br />
WS-X4548-GB-RJ45V<br />
6 gigabits per-slot capacity<br />
Bandwidth is allocated across six 8-port groups, providing 1 Gbps per port group<br />
<br />
<br />
I am trying to determine 2 things:<br />
<br />
1. For the X# of port groups, providing X# Gbps per port group;<br />
&nbsp;How do you determine which actual ports on the line card participate in which &quot;port group&quot;? It seems to me based on wording, that I may want to put a heavily congested server alone in a &quot;port group&quot; to guarantee the X# Gbps throughput?<br />
<br />
2. For the X# gigabits per second slot capacity; <br />
&nbsp;Is my understanding correct that this translates to say 6 or 24Gbps total output from this slot to the chassis fabric? Meaning if I had 8 1Gbps devices running full steam on a 6Gbps slot, they would oversubscribe the slot?

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.

Network design and methodology, also known as network architecture, is the design of a communication network. It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as data formats used in its operation. In telecommunication, the specification of a network architecture may also include a detailed description of products and services delivered via a communications network, as well as detailed rate and billing structures under which services are compensated.
