portCfgLport 2 portCfgLport Synopsis Configures a port as an L_Port. portcfglport [[slot/]port] locked_mode [private_mode] [duplex_mode]] Description Use this command to designate a port as an L_Port, and to configure its behavior. When a port is designated as an L_Port, the switch attempts to initialize that port as a fabric L_Port (FL_Port). The switch will never attempt a point-to-point (F_Port) initialization on the port. By default the L_Port will be a public L_Port. It can be configured as a private L_Port, in which case it will reject fabric login (FLOGI). Notes This configuration can be cleared but not set on VE/VEX_Ports. VE_Ports on the Brocade 7800 and FX8-24 platforms do not support Arbitrated Loops. If one of the virtual FC ports (16-31) is preconfigured as an L_Port, and a Brocade FX8-24 Extension blade is inserted into the slot, the configuration is not honored. The system logs a RASLOG error and the port defaults back to a G_Port. Attempts to configure a VE_Port as an L_Port are rejected with a corresponding system message. The Fabric OS port configuration commands are not supported on FCoE ports. Use fcoe --cfg to configure FCoE ports. 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. Operands When invoked without operands, this command reports the L_Port conditions for all ports present. The following operands are supported: slot For bladed systems only, specify the slot number of the port to be configured, followed by a slash (/). port Specify a port number to be configured, relative to its slot for bladed systems. Use switchShow to display a list of valid ports. This operand is optional; if omitted, this command displays the L_Port conditions for all ports. locked_mode Specify 1 to configure the specified port as a locked L_Port. Specify 0 to remove the locked L_Port configuration from the port (default). This operand is required if port is specified. private_mode Specify 1 to configure the L_Port as a private L_Port. Specify 0 to configure the L_Port as a regular public L_Port. This operand is optional; if omitted; the default value of 0 is used. Private devices are supported only on Brocade enterprise-class platforms with FC2-16 and FC2-16 blades. On all other platforms, option 1 is blocked. duplex_mode Specify 2 to configure the specified port as a full-duplex L_Port with fairness. Specify 0 to configure the L_Port as a full-duplex L_Port. This operand is optional; if omitted, the default value of 0 is used. Fabric OS Command Reference 615 53-1001337-01
