portCfgGport
Designates a port as a locked G_Port.
Synopsis
portCfgGport port, 0|1
Availability
admin
Description
This command enables a user to designate a port as a locked G_Port. Once this is done, the switch
attempts to initialize that port as an F_Port only, and does not attempt loop initialization (FL_Port)
on the port. However, if the device attached to the port initiates loop communication, then the
switch responds accordingly and the port can then become an FL_Port. Similarly, a port designated
as a G_Port can become an E_Port.
Locking a port as a G_Port only changes the actions initiated by the switch; it does not change how
the switch responds to initialization requests.
The configuration is saved in the non-volatile memory and is persistent across switch reboot or
power cycle.
Operands
This command has the following operands:
port
Specify the port number to be configured. Valid values for port number vary
depending on the switch type. This operand is required.
0|1
Specify a value of 1 to designate the port as a G_Port. Specify a value of 0 to
remove the G_Port designation from the port. This is the default port state. This
operand is required.
Example
The following example configures switch port 3 as a locked G_Port:
