There are 8 x 10 gige SFP+ ports available on a typical C100MP used for Avalanche Layer 4-7 testing.
The N4U offers 2 x 40 gige QSFP+ ports with the MX-2 Spirent Test Center Layer 2-3 testing.
-There are 2 x Cumulus switches with 32 ports of 40 gige QSFP+ ports for a total capacity of 256 ports of 10 gige. We use QSFP+ to SFP+ break out cables to convert a single 40 gige port into 4 x 10 gige ports.
-Together these offer a flexible solution to allow up to 8 simultaneous tests to take place with physical traffic generators at the same time. Assuming a 10 to 1 oversubscription ratio we could handle 80 community users with the current environment.
