Chapter 5 Configuring Gigabit Ethernet Switching Configuring Gigabit Ethernet Setting the Port Name You can assign names to the ports on Gigabit Ethernet modules to facilitate switch administration. To assign a name to a port, perform this task in privileged mode: Step 1 Step 2 Task Assign a name to a port. Verify that the port name is configured. Command set port name mod_num/port_num [name_string] show port [mod_num[/port_num]] This example shows how to set the name for ports 2/1 and 2/2 and how to verify that the port names are configured correctly: Console> (enable) set port name 2/1 Backbone Connection Port 2/1 name set. Console> (enable) set port name 2/2 Wiring Closet Port 2/2 name set. Console> (enable) show port 2 Port Name Status Vlan Level Duplex Speed Type 2/1 Backbone Connectio connected trunk normal full 1000 1000BASESX 2/2 Wiring Closet notconnect 1 normal full 1000 1000BASESX Last-Time-Cleared Tue Dec 22 1998, 13:42:04 Console> (enable) Setting the Port Priority Level You can configure the priority level for each port. When two ports simultaneously request access to the switching bus, the switch uses the priority level to determine the order in which the ports get access. To set the port priority level, perform this task in privileged mode: Task Step 1 Configure the priority level for a port. Step 2 Verify that the port priority level is configured correctly. Command set port level mod_num/port_num {normal | high} show port [mod_num[/port_num]] This example shows how to set the port priority level to high for port 2/1 and verify that the port priority is configured correctly: Console> (enable) set port level 2/1 high Port 2/1 level set to high.
