C9336-FX2 - Convert ports 31-34 to downlink ports

[vv0bbLeS]

Hello all,

Per the C9336-FX2 Hardware Installation Guide :

From ACI release 3.2(3i) onwards, ports 31-34 are convert-able to downlink ports.

Per this great answer from @Sergiu.Daniluk , it should be fairly simple to convert a port to a Downlink port. But when I follow the procedure and click say port 31 on my C9336-FX2 leaf in Configuration mode, like Sergiu's example I also don't have the option to convert port 31 to a Downlink port. Per the above Cisco documentation however, this should be possible. In this fabric I'm running 5.2(4d) so the option should be available per the doc. I also tried to disable the port first, but that didn't help.

Does anyone know how to convert ports 31-34 on a C9336-FX2 leaf to be downlink ports?

Wow, right after I post this I found the answer LOL - I thought hmm I have Interface Selector policies applied to this Port 31 interface, I wonder if I need to remove those first, and yep that was it :- D So if you need to convert a port to a Downlink port, make sure you don't have any Interface Selectors applied to the port!
