@hakasapl There's no free 40G port on the brocade switch in cage 15 u 43.

Okay, is there another 40 or 100G switch that has these VLANs we can hook up to?

if I understand correctly, this is tied to the option A or B in this diagram: https://lucid.app/lucidchart/4664ad52-160e-42a1-b933-14e1a6f29a6b/edit?shared=true&page=0_0#?folder_id=home&browser=icon and this means we have to connect Row 6 directly to Row 3 to enable NESE and MOC access.

And the implication is we have to go with option B - connecting Row 6 and 3

I mapped our usage of 40G ports here:

and we are thinking of running another 40G cable from our end to OCT for a total of 80G between OCT and MOC, and then a direct 100G link between OCT and R6.
