Set the link operating mode for a network interface.
Synopsis
ifModeSet ["interface"]
Availability
admin
Description
Use this command to set the link operating mode for a network interface.
Use ifShow to list network interfaces available on the system.
An operating mode is confirmed with a "
y
" or "
yes
" at the prompt. If the operating mode selected
differs from the current mode, the change is saved and the command exits.
The system must be rebooted for changes to take effect.
Changing the link mode is not supported for all network interfaces or for all ethernet network
interfaces. At present, this command is only functional for "fei" interfaces.
Exercise care when using this command. Forcing the link to an operating mode not supported by
the network equipment to which it is attached may result in an inability to communicate with the
system through its ethernet interface.
Operands
This command has the following operand:
interface
Specify the name of the interface in quotation marks. For example, "
fei0
",
where
fei
is the network interface, and 0 is the physical unit.
Example
