fibre-loop-id values Optional. For FC, specifies comma-separated loop ID values to request for host ports when controllers arbitrate during a LIP. Use this option if you want ports to have specific addresses, if your system checks addresses in reverse order (lowest address first), or if an application requires that specific IDs be assigned to recognize the controller. If the loop ID is changed for one port, the same ID is used for other ports in the same controller. If the ports parameter is specified, loop IDs are set based on the controllers that the ports are in. You cannot specify the same value for ports on different controllers. • soft or 255: Soft target addressing enables the LIP to determine the loop ID. Use this setting if the loop ID is permitted to change after a LIP or power cycle. • 0-125: Specify a hard target address if you do not want the loop ID to change after a LIP or power cycle. If the port cannot acquire the specified ID, it is assigned a soft target address. You must restart affected controllers to make loop ID changes take effect. default-router address Optional. For iSCSI IPv6 only, the default router for the port IP address. gateway address Optional. For iSCSI, the port gateway address. ip address Optional. For iSCSI, the port IP address. Ensure that each iSCSI host port in the storage system is assigned a different IP address. iscsi-ip-version ipv4|ipv6 Optional. Specifies whether to use IP version 4 (IPv4) or 6 (IPv6) for addressing controller iSCSI ports. When you change this setting, iSCSI-port address values are converted to the new format. • ipv4: Lets you specify addresses in dot-decimal format, where the four octets of the address use decimal values without leading zeroes and the octets are separated by a period; for example, 10.132.2.205. The first octet may not be zero, with the exception that 0.0.0.0 can be used to disable the interface (stop I/O). This option is the default. • ipv6: Lets you specify addresses using eight groups of four hexadecimal digits, where the groups are separated by a colon. All groups must be specified. For example, 0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0A90:3442. netmask address Optional. For iSCSI IPv4 only, the subnet mask for the port IP address. noprompt Optional in console format; required for XML API format. Suppresses the confirmation prompt, which requires a yes or no response. Specifying this parameter allows the command to proceed without user interaction. ports ports|all Optional. Specific host port numbers or all ports. For port syntax, see "Command syntax" (page 20). prompt yes|no|expert Optional. Specifies an automatic response to the confirmation prompt: • yes: Allow the command to proceed. • no: Cancel the command. • expert: Allow the command to proceed. If this parameter is omitted, you must manually reply to the prompt. speed 2g|4g|8g|auto Optional. For FC, sets a forced link speed in Gbit/s or lets the speed be auto-negotiated (auto). Because a speed mismatch prevents communication between the port and host, set a speed only if you need to force the port to use a known speed for testing, or you need to specify a mutually supported speed for more than two FC devices connected in an arbitrated loop. set host-parameters 159
