4.5.1 Disabling a Port

There can be times when you need to disable a specific Ethernet port, for
example, after you have determined that there is faulty equipment.
Disabling a port effectively stops all bridging functions for that port.
Disabled ports do not accept SNMP packets, and therefore cannot
communicate with an NMS.

To disable a port, or port range, at the LCM prompt:

1. Type

disable <PORT-RANGE>

For example,

disable 7-9

would disable ports 7, 8, and 9.

LCM responds:

Once an Ethernet port is disabled, it will be disabled until you enable it
again. Resetting the FN10 will not enable a port that has been disabled.

Port 7: Disabled
Port 8: Disabled
Port 9: Disabled
