4 VLAN configuration and management Enabling and disabling an interface port NOTE CEE interfaces are disabled by default. NOTE CEE interfaces do not support auto-negotiation of Ethernet link speeds. The CEE interfaces only support 10-Gigabit Ethernet. To enable and disable an interface port, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode. 1. Enter the configure terminal command to enter global configuration mode. 2. Enter the interface command to specify the CEE interface type and slot/port number. Example of selecting the Ten Gigabit Ethernet port number 0/1. switch(config)#interface tengigabitethernet 0/1 3. Enter the shutdown command to toggle the availability of the interface. To enable the CEE interface: switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#no shutdown To disable the CEE interface: switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#shutdown Configuring the MTU on an interface port To configure the maximum transmission unit (MTU) on an interface port, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode. 1. Enter the configure terminal command to enter global configuration mode. 2. Enter the interface command to specify the interface port type and slot/port number. Example of selecting the Ten Gigabit Ethernet port number 0/1. switch(config)#interface tengigabitethernet 0/1 3. Enter the no shutdown command to enable the interface port. 4. Enter the mtu command to specify the MTU value on the interface port. Example of setting the MTU value to 4200. switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#mtu 4200 Creating a VLAN interface On Brocade FCoE hardware, VLANs are treated as interfaces from a configuration point of view. By default all the CEE ports are assigned to VLAN 1 (VLAN ID equals 1). The vlan_ID value can be 1 through 3583. VLAN IDs 3584 through 4094 are internally-reserved VLAN IDs. To create a VLAN interface, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode. 1. Enter the configure terminal command to enter global configuration mode. 2. Enter the interface vlan command to assign the VLAN interface number. 40 Converged Enhanced Ethernet Administrator's Guide 53-1001346-01

Enabling and disabling an interface port
NOTE
CEE interfaces are disabled by default.
NOTE
CEE interfaces do not support auto-negotiation of Ethernet link speeds. The CEE interfaces only
support 10-Gigabit Ethernet.
To enable and disable an interface port, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode.
1.
Enter the
configure terminal
command to enter global configuration mode.
2.
Enter the
interface
command to specify the CEE interface type and slot/port number.
Example of selecting the Ten Gigabit Ethernet port number 0/1.
switch(config)#
interface tengigabitethernet 0/1
3.
Enter the
shutdown
command to toggle the availability of the interface.
To enable the CEE interface:
switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#
no shutdown
To disable the CEE interface:
switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#
shutdown
Configuring the MTU on an interface port
To configure the maximum transmission unit (MTU) on an interface port, perform the following
steps from Privileged EXEC mode.
1.
Enter the
configure terminal
command to enter global configuration mode.
2.
Enter the
interface
command to specify the interface port type and slot/port number.
Example of selecting the Ten Gigabit Ethernet port number 0/1.
switch(config)#
interface tengigabitethernet 0/1
3.
Enter the
no shutdown
command to enable the interface port.
4.
Enter the
mtu
command to specify the MTU value on the interface port.
Example of setting the MTU value to 4200.
switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#
mtu 4200
Creating a VLAN interface
On Brocade FCoE hardware, VLANs are treated as interfaces from a configuration point of view.
By default all the CEE ports are assigned to VLAN 1 (VLAN ID equals 1). The
vlan_ID
value can be 1
through 3583. VLAN IDs 3584 through 4094 are internally-reserved VLAN IDs.
To create a VLAN interface, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode.
1.
Enter the
configure terminal
command to enter global configuration mode.
2.
Enter the
interface vlan
command to assign the VLAN interface number.
