If this command is executed for a specified port with no additional options, it displays general status and configuration for that port. If executed with optional arguments for a gigabit Ethernet (GbE) port or VE_Port, the command displays FCIP-related port configuration parameters specific to the Brocade 7800/FX8-24 and the Brocade 7500/7500E/FR-18i platforms. This command has been modified to support the display of FCIP tunnels on the Brocade 7800 and 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. • "General port status display commands (supported on all platforms)" on page 689 • "Port display commands supported on the Brocade 7800/FX8-24 and on the Brocade 7500/7500E/FR4-18i platforms" on page 695 • "Commands supported only on the Brocade 7800 and the Brocade FX8-24." on page 698 • "Commands supported only on the Brocade 7500/7500E and FR4-18i." on page 711 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, use portShow [action].
