Managing Ports
This section describes how to manage universal ports. You can clear ports, remove ports from service,
and disable ports from dial-up service by using port configuration mode. For details on disabling a port
from dial-up service, see the
“Troubleshooting” section on page 5-9
.
Clear Ports
To clear a port means to deactivate calls on a port or to clear the Bad state on a port and reset it. Ports
need to be cleared if communication attempts with the port have failed or if the port is to be removed
from operation.
Use the show spe slot/spe command to view the active ports on an SPE. To clear ports on an SPE, enter
the following command in privileged EXEC mode. You can clear all ports on the gateway, all ports on a
slot, or a port. This replaces the clear modem command.
•
The example below clears port 1 on slot 4.
AS5400# clear port 4/1
AS5400# This will clear port 4/01 [confirm] yes
AS5400#
•
The example below clears all active ports on slot 4.
AS5400# clear port 4
AS5400# This will clear port 4/00 - 4/107 [confirm] yes
AS5400#
If slot/port is specified, the port on that SPE is cleared. If slot is specified, all active ports on that
particular slot are cleared. If no argument is specified, all ports are cleared.
Additionally, this command clears the Bad state on a port and resets it. However, the port is not
cleared if the SPE was previously in a Bad state due to an SPE firmware download.
Port Configuration Mode
Port configuration mode allows you to enter a mode similar to line configuration mode. This mode
allows individual ports or ranges of ports to be shut down or put in busyout mode. Port configuration
mode commands replace the modem range, modem busyout, and modem shutdown commands used
with MICA modems.
•
The example below demonstrates how to enter port configuration mode for a single port.
AS5400# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
AS5400(config)# port 3/1
AS5400(config-port)#
•
The example below demonstrates how to enter port configuration mode for a range of ports.
AS5400# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
AS5400(config)# port 3/1 3/18
AS5400(config-port)#
