Ahh. I was looking at the block diagram for the GE-TX and just assumed it was the same for SFP.

Thanx for the correction.

On the fiber (SFP) card, ports are indeed mapped in groups of 12 consecutive odd/12 consecutive even ports per rohini, with 24 odd ports on one janus & 24 even ports on the other.

I'd guess you're just running out of replication bandwidth. A bit more detail about the traffic pattern etc would help. How many L3 replications are occurring here, and for what input rate? Ingress or egress replication?

As a general rule you should spread the receivers as evenly as possible among odd & even ports to spread the replication load.

Hope that helps,
Tim

Nothing that I can think of. One Super Santa Anna and Janus run ports
1-24 and another pair of them run ports 25-48. One Rohini runs each
consecutive group of 12 ports. The only thing I could guess at is the
path take across the switchbar fabric but I don't recall how we select
FPOE right now.
