So your saying that if a port is on linecard 1 it's interfaces are numbered with '2' I'm not a Arista user but that doesn't seem right.

It's a 8 slot chassis, but in fact there is 9 slot, the first slot is dedicated to SUP, so Management interface is numered Management1/1 and 1/2
Then, the first Line card is called in fact Linecard2 to Linecard9, Linecard 2 is on the 1 slot of 8, and it's called Ethernet2/1/1 > 2/16/1

Okay so for linecard 2 its position number should be '2' so that when a module is installed the interfaces start et2/x rather than et1/x

Then all line cards should follow the same position numbering.
