its a mellanox switch but uses the same syntax as cisco

- Yet , not a cisco device problem, consider contacting mellanox support or search for user forum with searching powers of the Net.

I used another interface and that let me split it 4 ways

I noticed when I did a "sh int status" it was just even interfaces it was showing, so looks like for every split it uses up 2 interfaces, so the next one, I will miss the next int and slot it in the 2nd one and it works, bit wierd
