Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.
config ports
Purpose
Used to configure the Switch’s Ethernet port settings.
Syntax
config ports [ <portlist> | all ] {medium_type [fiber | copper]} { speed[auto
{capability_advertised {10_half | 10_full | 100_half | 100_full | 1000_full } }| 10_half |
10_full | 100_half | 100_full | 1000_full {[master | slave]} ] | auto_negotiation
restart_an |flow_control [enable | disable] | learning [enable | disable ] | state
[enable | disable] | [description <desc 1-32> | clear_description]}
Description
This command allows for the configuration of the Switch’s Ethernet ports. Only the ports
listed in the
<portlist>
will be affected.
Parameters
all
−
Configure all ports on the Switch.
<portlist>
−
Specifies a port or range of ports to be configured. The beginning and end of
the port list range are separated by a dash.
medium_type [fiber | copper]
– This applies only to the Combo ports. If configuring the
Combo ports this defines the type of transport medium used.
speed
– Allows the user to adjust the speed for a port or range of ports. The user has a
choice of the following:
•
auto
−
Enables auto-negotiation for the specified range of ports.
•
[10 | 100 | 1000]
−
Configures the speed in Mbps for the specified range of
ports. Gigabit ports are statically set to 1000 and cannot be set to slower
speeds.
•
[half | full]
−
Configures the specified range of ports as either full-duplex or half-
duplex.
•
[master | slave]
– The master setting (1000M/Full_M) will allow the port to
advertise capabilities related to duplex, speed and physical layer type. The
master setting will also determine the master and slave relationship between
the two connected physical layers. This relationship is necessary for
establishing the timing control between the two physical layers. The timing
control is set on a master physical layer by a local source. The slave setting
(1000M/Full_S) uses loop timing, where the timing comes form a data stream
received from the master. If one connection is set for 1000M/Full_M, the other
side of the connection must be set for 1000M/Full_S. Any other configuration
will result in a link down status for both ports.
flow_control [enable | disable]
– Enable or disable flow control for the specified ports.
learning [enable | disable]
−
Enables or disables the MAC address learning on the
specified range of ports.
