PowerConnect(config)# interface e 8
PowerConnect(config-if-e10000-8)# speed-duplex 10-full
Syntax: speed-duplex value
The value can be one of the following:
• 10-full
• 10-half
• 100-full
• 100-half
• auto (default)
Disabling or re-enabling a port
A port can be made inactive (disable) or active (enable) by selecting the appropriate status option.
The default value for a port is enabled.
To disable port 8 of a device, enter the following.
PowerConnect(config)# interface e 8
PowerConnect(config-if-e10000-8)# disable
Syntax: disable
You also can disable or re-enable a virtual interface. To do so, enter commands such as the
following.
PowerConnect(config)# interface ve v1
PowerConnect(config-vif-1)# disable
Syntax: disable
To re-enable a virtual interface, enter the enable command at the Interface configuration level. For
example, to re-enable virtual interface v1, enter the following command.
PowerConnect(config-vif-1)#enable
Syntax: enable
Disabling or re-enabling flow control
You can configure full-duplex ports on a system to operate with or without flow control (802.3x).
Flow control is enabled by default.
To disable flow control on full-duplex ports on a system, enter the following.
PowerConnect(config)# no flow-control
To turn the feature back on.
PowerConnect(config)# flow-control
Syntax: [no] flow-control
NOTE
For optimal link operation, link ports on devices that do not support 803.3u must be configured with
like parameters, such as speed (10,100,1000), duplex (half, full), and Flow Control.
