Hi aborzenkov,
also please bear in mind that we started to leverage dynamic port licensing in order to achive a consistent cabling layout for all MCC configurations irrespective of the number of licensed ports.
So with only 12 ports being licensed for a 6505 does not mean you have to use ports 0-11 anymore, but *any* 12 ports. Hence you can put the SFPs into any port to adhere to the CIG as long it's only up to 12. Using more than 12 ports will require the additonal POD license.
regards, Niels
