can i put in a bgroup 2 interface with different physical settings?

I need to have a port at 100mbps and one other at 10mbps...

if i try this config could i have problem?

thx in advance

Hello,

 

bgroups on SSG140s are only supported on Univrsal PIMs in addition to built in ports.

So if you utilize inbuilt ports on SSG140 for bgroup1, you can utilize ports on another Universal PIM for bgroup1.

With this, you can have difference physical settings for bgroup0 & bgroup1.

Hello Rushi,
thanks for response.

There's any chance to put different settings for ports in the same bgroup?

Hello,

 

I just checked in the lab that once you put the interface in bgroup, you can not change the bandwidth of assigned interface.

Only bgroup related bandwidth can be changed.

 

e.g. if I put eth0/4 & eth0/5 on SSG140 into bgroup0 & eth0/6 & eth0/7 in bgroup1, I only get option to select bandwidth for bgroup0 or bgroup1. I do not get that option for eth0/4 or eth0/5 or eth0/6 or eth0/7. So I think manually putting two difference bandwidths on two ports of same bgroup is not possible.

 

However all ports eth0/4 to eth0/7 can be kept with auto negotiation mode & full duplex settings & peer interfaces can be configured with different speeds to check if interfaces part of same bgroup can auto negotiate different speeds based on peer interface settings or not. You can give it a try though I have doubts about it.
