Description Use this command to create or enter the interface configuration mode to configure an interface.
Usage Guidelines On the Brocade VDX family of switches, VLANs are treated as interfaces from a configuration point
of view. By default, all the DCB ports are assigned to VLAN 1 (VLAN ID equals 1). Valid VLAN IDs
are as follows:
• On Brocade VDX 8770 switches: 1 through 4086 for 802.1Q VLANs (VLAN IDs 4087
through 4095 are reserved on these switches), and 4096 through 8191 for service or
transport VFs in a Virtual Fabrics context.
• On all other Brocade VDX switches: 1 through 3962 for 802.1Q VLANs (VLAN IDs 3963
through 4095 are reserved on these switches), and 4096 through 8191 for service or
transport VFs in a Virtual Fabrics context.
The fibrechannel rbridge-id/slot/port parameter is used only on Brocade VDX 6730-32 and
Brocade VDX 6730-76 switches in Brocade VCS Fabric mode. The prompt for configuring these
ports is in the following format:
switch(config-FibreChannel-66/0/1)#
The gigabitethernet rbridge-id/slot/port parameter is used only on Brocade VDX 6710,
Brocade VDX 8770-4, and Brocade VDX 8770-8 switches. The prompt for configuring these ports
is in the following format:
switch(config-if-gi-22/0/1)#
Enter no interface followed by the appropriate interface identification parameters to disable that
interface.
Examples To configure a Fibre Channel port on a Brocade VDX 6730-32 switch:
switch(config)# interface FibreChannel 66/0/1
switch(config-FibreChannel-66/0/1)#
To enter FCoE configuration mode for an interface:
switch(config)# interface fcoe 1/0/1
switch(config-Fcoe-1/0/1)#
To enter configuration mode on a 1 Gbps interface on a Brocade VDX 6710:
switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/0/1
switch(config-if-gi-1/0/1)#
