Disabling in-flight compression
Disabling compression is an offline event. Ports must be disabled first, and then re-enabled after.
NOTE
Firmware downgrade from Fabric OS 7.3.0 to an earlier version is blocked if in-flight encryption with FCAP protocol is set.
Please set the DHCHAP protocol using the authutil --set command before downgrade.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions, or an account with OM permissions for the
SwitchPortConfiguration RBAC class of commands.
2. Disable the port using the portDisable command.
3. Disable compression on the port using the portCfgCompress --disable command.
The following example disables compression on port 15 in slot 9 of an enterprise class platform:
switch:admin> portcfgcompress --disable 9/15
4. Enable the port using the portEnable command.
You can verify the configuration using the portCfgShow command.
