According to HPE Aruba Networking VSX best practices, what change is required to the configuration?

Explanation

HPE Aruba VSX best practices call for the inter-switch link (ISL) between VSX peer switches to use identical, matched-speed transceivers on both member ports rather than mixing link speeds, because an asymmetric ISL undermines the redundancy and bandwidth consistency the ISL is meant to provide. The CX8325's 1/1/47 and 1/1/48 ports are SFP28-capable (supporting up to 25GbE), so replacing the mismatched 10GBase-SR and 1000Base-T connections with matching SFP28 connectivity brings the ISL into compliance, while the CX6300 uplink ports shown are already correctly provisioned with SFP28 DAC cabling and require no change.
