Table 51: Set Config port parameters

Parameter

Description

AdminState

Port administrative state:

Online – Activates and prepares the port to send data. This

is the default.

Offline – Prevents the port from receiving signal and

accepting a device login.

Diagnostics – Prepares the port for testing and prevents the

port from accepting a device login.

Down – Disables the port by removing power from the port

lasers.

LinkSpeed

Transmission speed: 2 Gbps or Auto. The default is Auto.

PortType

Port type: GL, G, F, FL, Donor. The default is GL.

SymbolicPortName

Descriptive name for the port. The name can be up to 32

characters excluding #, semicolon (;), and comma (,). The

default is Port n where n is the port number.

ALFairness

Arbitration loop fairness. Enables (True) or disables (False) the

switch’s priority to arbitrate on the loop. The default is False.

DeviceScanEnabled

Enables (True) or disables (False) the scanning of the

connected device for FC-4 descriptor information during login.

The default is True.

ForceOfflineRSCN

Enables (False) or disables (True) the immediate transmission

of RSCN messages when communication between a port and

a device is interrupted. If enabled, the RSCN message is

delayed for 200 ms for locally attached devices and 400 ms

for devices connected through other switches. The default is

False. This parameter is ignored if IOStreamGuard is enabled.

ARB_FF

Send ARB_FF (True) instead of IDLEs (False) on the loop. The

default is False.

InteropCredit

Interoperability credit. The number of buffer-to-buffer credits

per port. 0 means the default (16) is unchanged. Changing

interoperability credits is necessary only for E_Ports that are

connected to non-FC-SW-2-compliant switches. (not

supported)

ExtCredit

Extended credits. The number of port buffer credits that this

port can acquire from donor ports. The default is 0.

FANEnable

Fabric address notification. Enables (True) or disables (False)

the communication of the FL_Port address, port name, and

node name to the logged-in NL_Port. The default is True.

LCFEnable

Link control frame preference routing. Enables (True) or

disables (False) preferred routing of frames with R_CTL =

1100. The default is False. Enabling LCFEnable will disable

MFSEnable.

MFSEnable

Multi-Frame Sequence bundling. Prevents (True) or allows

(False) the interleaving of frames in a sequence. The default is

False. Enabling MFSEnable disables LCFEnable and

VIEnable.

MSEnable
