ifModeSet Description: V4.1.x Use this command to set the link operating mode for a network interface. An operating mode is confirmed with a "y" or "yes" at the prompt. If the operating mode selected differs from the current mode, the change is saved and the command exits. Changing the link mode is not supported for all network interfaces or for all ethernet network interfaces. This command is only functional for the "eth0" interface. Exercise care when using this command. Forcing the link to an operating mode not supported by the network equipment to which it is attached may result in an inability to communicate with the system through its ethernet interface. For dual-CP systems, the ifmodeset command affects the CP that you are currently logged into. To set the link operating mode on the active CP you must issue this command on the active CP. To set the link operating mode on the standby CP you must issue this command on the standby CP. During failover the link operating mode is retained separately for each CP, since the physical links may be set to operate in different modes. Operands This command has the following operand: interface For V3.1.x, specify the name of the interface, enclosed in quotation marks. For V4.1.x, specify the name of the interface. You may specify the name with quotation marks, but using them is not required. Example To advertise all modes of operation, follow this scenario for the ifModeSet command: switch:admin> ifmodeset "fei0" Auto-negotiate (yes, y, no, n): [no] 100 Mbps / Full Duplex (yes, y, no, n): [no] 100 Mbps / Half Duplex (yes, y, no, n): [no] 10 Mbps / Full Duplex (yes, y, no, n): [no] 10 Mbps / Half Duplex (yes, y, no, n): [no] yes Committing configuration...done.switch:admin> Fabric OS Version 3.1.x/4.1.x Reference Guide 365
