Fabric OS reference guide portcfglport Syntax Availability Description Operands Locks a port as an L_Port, with options to be private or enabled half-duplex mode. portcfglport port_number, mode [,mode1] [,mode2] Admin Use this command to designate a port as an L_Port. The switch then attempts to initialize only that port as an FL_Port. By default, the L_Port is a public L_Port. It can be set as a private L_Port and the FLOGI is rejected. The switch never attempts point-to-point (F_Port) initialization on the port. The following operands are required: port_number The port number to be configured: 0 through 7 or 0 through 15. mode mode1 mode2 A value of 1 means port_number is a locked L_Port. A value of 0 means port_number is deconfigured as a locked L_Port. If not specified, set to 0 by default. - 1 The L_Port is a private L_Port; FLOGI is rejected. - 0 The L_Port is a public L_Port. If mode2 is not specified, set to 0 by default. - 2 The L_Port is full-duplex mode with fairness ON. - 1 The L_Port is half-duplex mode ON. - 0 The L_Port is half-duplex mode OFF. When the port_number operand is present, the mode operand must be the second parameter. Without any operand, the command reports a list of ports and their current settings. If the port under configuration is a QuickLoop port, all three modes are required when using portcfglport to configure this loop port to be half-duplex: for example, portcfglport port_number, mode, mode1, mode2. 202 Fabric OS 3.x Document Addendum

Locks a port as an L_Port, with options to be private or enabled half-duplex mode.
Syntax
portcfglport
port_number
,
mode
[,
mode1
] [,
mode2
]
Availability
Admin
Description
Use this command to designate a port as an L_Port. The switch then attempts to initialize only
that port as an FL_Port. By default, the L_Port is a public L_Port. It can be set as a private
L_Port and the FLOGI is rejected.
The switch never attempts point-to-point (F_Port) initialization on the port.
Operands
The following operands are required:
When the
port_number
operand is present, the
mode
operand must be the second
parameter.
Without any operand, the command reports a list of ports and their current settings.
If the port under configuration is a QuickLoop port, all three modes are required when using
portcfglport to configure this loop port to be half-duplex: for example,
portcfglport
port_number
,
mode
,
mode1
,
mode2
.
portcfglport
port_number
The port number to be configured: 0 through 7 or 0 through 15.
mode
A value of
1
means
port_number
is a locked L_Port. A value of
0
means
port_number
is deconfigured as a locked L_Port.
mode1
If not specified, set to 0 by default.
1 The L_Port is a private L_Port; FLOGI is rejected.
0 The L_Port is a public L_Port.
mode2
If
mode2
is not specified, set to 0 by default.
2 The L_Port is full-duplex mode with fairness ON.
1 The L_Port is half-duplex mode ON.
0 The L_Port is half-duplex mode OFF.
