portCfgEXPort

2

If the Fabric Parameter attribute value is "User configured", the port ID format R_A_TOV and E_D_TOV
values display the configured values.

The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in
place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for
details.

OPERANDS

When invoked without operands, this command displays the usage. The following operands are
supported:

slot

On bladed systems only, specifies the slot number followed by a slash (/).

port

Specifies the port number. Use switchShow for a list of valid ports. When
executed with [slot/]port only, the command displays the current port
configuration.

-a admin

Enables or disables the specified port as an EX_Port. Valid values are 1 (enable
as EX_Port), 2 (disable as EX_Port and enable as non-EX_Port). portCfgDefault
may also be used to disable EX_Ports.

-f fabricid

Specifies the fabric ID. Valid values are 1 to 128.

-r ratov

Specifies the R_A_TOV used for port negotiation. Valid values are 2000 to
120000. This operand is only applicable if the "Fabric Parameter" attribute value is
not "Auto Negotiate".

-e edtov

Specifies the E_D_TOV used for port negotiation. Valid values are 1000 to 60000.
This operand is only applicable if the "Fabric Parameter" attribute value is not
"Auto Negotiate".

-d domainid

Specifies the preferred domain ID. For Brocade native mode (-m 0), valid values
are 1 to 239.

-p pidformat

Specifies the Port ID format. Valid values are 0-native, 1-core, 2-extended edge.
This operand is applicable only when port mode is set to 0 (native mode). If port
mode is not "Brocade Native", the Port ID format displays as "Not applicable".

-t fabric_parameter

Enables or disables negotiation of the fabric parameters. Valid values are 1 for
enable and 2 for disable.

-m port mode

Specifies the port mode. The -m option enforces the same port mode for all the
ports connected to the same edge fabric. If this option is selected, the port mode
is compared against the online ports. If the modes are different, an error message
is posted, and the command fails. Valid values are as follows:

0

Brocade Native mode.

5

Brocade Network OS fabric mode.

-i mode

Enables or disables Insistent Domain Id (IDID) for the specified EX_Port. Specify
1 to enable IDID, specify 2 to disable IDID. This command must be issued from a
McDATA edge switch attached to a single or dual FCR configuration.
