portCfgEPort Enables a port to become an E_Port or prevents a port from becoming an E_Port. Synopsis portcfgeport [slotnumber/]portnumber, mode Availability admin Description Use this command to enable a port to become an E_Port or to prevent a port from becoming an E_Port. The E_Port capability is enabled by default unless this command is used to disable it. When a port is configured as a non-E_Port through this command, an ISL connected to this port is segmented. No data traffic between two switches is routed through this port. Fabric management data, such as zoning information, are not exchanged through this port either. Regardless of how many E_Ports are connected between two switches, the maximum routing paths are currently limited to 16 E_Ports. Changes made by this command are persistent across switch reboots or power cycles. Operands This command has the following operands: slotnumber portnumber mode For bladed systems only, specifies the slot number of the port to be configured, followed by a slash (/). Specifies the number of the port to be configured, relative to its slot for bladed systems. Use switchShow to display a list of valid ports. Specify 1 to enable the port to become an E_Port. This is the default port state. Specify 0 to disable the port from becoming an E_Port. Examples To disable a port from becoming an E_Port: switch:admin> portcfgeport 2/3, 0 To enable a port to become an E_Port: switch:admin> portcfgeport 1/3, 1 See also portShow switchShow Fabric OS 5.x command reference guide 449
