2 portCfgNPort portCfgNPort Synopsis Enables or disables N_Port functionality for an Access Gateway port. portcfgnport [slot]port1[-port2] [mode] Description Use this command to enable or disable N_Port functionality for an Access Gateway port or for a range of ports. The enabled N_Ports automatically come online if they are connected to an enterprise fabric switch that supports NPIV. When used without operands, this command displays the port configuration. Notes NPIV capability must be enabled on the ports connected to the Access Gateway. By default, NPIV is enabled. Use portcfgnpivport --enable to enable NPIV capability on a port, if it was previously disabled. Note that enabling or disabling NPIV capability is no supported in Access Gateway mode. The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for details. Operands This command has the following optional operands: slot Specifies the slot number, followed by a slash (/) on bladed systems. port1[-port2] Specifies a single port or a range of ports to be configured as N_Ports, for example, 3-9, or 2/10-15. mode Enables (1) or disables (0) N_Port functionality on the specified ports. The default mode is 0 (disabled). Examples To enable N_Port functionality for a port: switch:admin> portcfgnport 2 1 To enable N_Port functionality for a set of ports in a specific range: switch:admin> portcfgnport 2-3 1 To display the N_Port configuration for all ports: switch:admin> portcfgnport Ports 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Locked N_Port ON ON ON ON ON ON ON ON .. .. .. . switch:admin> portcfgshow Ports of Slot 0 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 Speed AN AN AN AN AN AN AN AN AN AN AN AN AN AN AN AN Fill Word 0000 0000 0000 0000 Trunk Port ON ON ON ON ON ON ON ON ON ON ON ON ON ON ON ON Locked N_Port Persistent Disable NPIV capability ON ON ON ON ON ON O ON ON ON ON ON ON ON ON ON NPIV PP Limit 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 90 (output truncated) See Also portCfgShow, ag 666 Fabric OS Command Reference 53-1001764-02
