Install the Reference Configuration File (RCF)

Summary

The RCF for BES switches, would require some manual changes.

Example: if the customer is using 40G/100G, some licenses and changes must be done prior to the RCF apply.

@amadorloureiro thanks for highlighting this issue. We'll review this feedback and update the documentation accordingly.

Step 6 covers this, yes?

Step 6: If additional port licenses have been installed on the switch, you must modify the RCF to configure the additional licensed ports. See Activate newly licensed ports for details. https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-systems-switches/switch-bes-53248/configure-licenses.html#activate-newly-licensed-ports

Right. But not sure if it is completely clear that "something else" is manually needed in the RCF and the switch config, for specific configurations like the speed.
