portCfg 2 portCfg Synopsis Manages configuration parameters for VE_ports and GbE ports. portcfg action [slot/] ge_port arguments portcfg action [slot/]ve_port options arguments portcfg action [slot/][ge_port options arguments Description Use this command to manage configuration parameters for ports and Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) ports on the Brocade 7800/FX8-24 platforms and the FC Router (Brocade 7500/7500E/FR4-18i). This command has been modified to support the configuration of FCIP tunnels on the Brocade 7800/FX8-24 platforms. As a result, the behavior of this command in Fabric OS v6.3.0 has changed. You must use this command in a manner that honors the platform-specific differences in command syntax and behavior. Some command options are not available on all platforms. Others behave differently depending on the platform on which they are executed. Use the following section headings to navigate this page. • "Commands supported on the Brocade 7800/FX8-24 and the Brocade 7500/7500E/FR4-18i platforms" on page 577 • "Commands supported only on the Brocade 7800 and the Brocade FX8-24 platforms" on page 580 • "Commands supported only on the Brocade 7500/7500E and the Brocade FR4-18i platforms" on page 587 • "Commands supported only on the Brocade 7500/7500E switches" on page 596 Each of these command groups is documented in a separate section that includes function, synopsis, description, operands and examples. Use the hot links to jump to a specific section. To display command usage on the switch, execute portcfg action without any arguments. Notes The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for details. Some of the features supported by this command may require a license. The Fabric OS port configuration commands are not supported on FCoE ports. Use fcoe --cfg to configure FCoE ports.

You must configure the local IP interfaces before you can create and configure FCIP tunnels. The procedure is essentially the same for both platforms. • portcfg ipf - Configure the local IP interfaces • portcfg iproute - Configure a static route on the IP interface Fabric OS Command Reference 577 53-1001337-01
