portCfg
2
mtu_size Specifies the maximum transmission unit size. The range allowed is 1500 to
2284 KB. The default is 1500 KB. This operand is optional with IPv6
addresses, in which case the MTU is detected automatically via the Neighbor
Discovery protocol.
delete ipaddr Deletes IP interfaces. Specify the IPv6 or IPv4 address of the virtual port.
iproute Defines static IP routes on a GbE port. After defining the IP interface of the
remote switch, you can define destination routes on an interface. A maximum
of 32 routes per GbE port are supported. IPv6 addresses are supported on
platforms running v6.0.0 or later. The syntax for portcfg iproute is as follows:
portcfg iproute [slot/][ge]port option args
Valid options and args for iproute are:
create dest_ipaddr [gateway_router] metric
Creates IP routes, where:
dest_ipaddr Specifies source IP address in either IPv6 or IPv4 format:
dest_IPv6_addr/[prefix_len]
Specifies the destination IPv6 address of the virtual port, if IPv6 is used. The
address must be an IPv6 global, unicast address. Optionally specify the
prefix length. This is used for IPv6 addresses instead of a netmask. If
prefix_len is not specified, the prefix length learned from the Neighbor
Discovery protocol will be used.
dest_IPv4_addr netmask
Specifies the destination IPv4 address of the virtual port, if IPv4 is used. If
an IPv4 address is used, the subnet mask must be specified as well. Use
a.b.c.d. format.
gateway_router Specifies the IP address of an IP router that can route packets to the
destination virtual port IP address. The gateway address must be on the
same IP subnet as one of the port IP addresses. This operand is optional with
IPv6 addresses. If not specified, the gateway_router learned from the
Neighbor Discovery protocol will be used.
metric Specifies the link metric associated with the route. Valid values are 0-255.
The default value is 0. A low value encourages the use of the route, and a
high value discourages the use of a route.
delete ipaddr Deletes IP routes for specified IPv4 or IPv6 address.
rscnsupr Manage Registered State Change Notification (RSCN) suppression on the
local port. RSCN suppression is configurable for both FC and GbE ports;
however, configuration options are dependent on the protocol. The syntax for
portcfg rscnsupr is as follows:
portcfg rscnsupr [slot/][ge]port [-range] mode
The following operands are supported with the rscnsupr option:
-range Specifies a range of ports in the same slot to which to apply the configuration.
This operand isoptional.
