Example
OS10(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/7
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/7)# no shutdown
Supported
Releases
10.2.0E or later
speed (Fibre Channel)
Configures the transmission speed of a Fibre Channel interface.
Syntax
speed {8 | 16 | 32 | auto}
Parameters Set the speed of a Fibre Channel interface to:
● 8 — 8GFC
● 16 — 16GFC
● 32 — 32GFC
● auto — Set the port speed to the speed of the installed media.
Defaults Auto
Command Mode INTERFACE
Usage
Information
The speed command is supported only on the Management and Fibre Channel interfaces. This command
is not supported on Ethernet interfaces.
● To configure oversubscription for bursty storage traffic on a FC interface, use the speed command.
Oversubscription allows a port to operate faster, but may result in traffic loss. For example, QSFP28
port groups in 4x8GFC mode support 16GFC oversubscription on member interfaces. QSFP28
breakout interfaces in 4x16GFC mode support 32GFC oversubscription.
● The no version of this command resets the port speed to the default value auto.
Example
OS10(conf-if-fc-1/1/2)# speed 16
Supported
Releases
10.3.1E or later
speed (Management)
Configures the transmission speed of the Management interface.
Syntax
speed {10 | 100 | 1000 | auto}
Parameters Set the management port speed to:
● 10 — 10M
● 100 — 100M
● 1000 — 1000M
● auto — Set the port to auto-negotiate speed with a connected device.
Defaults Auto
Command Mode INTERFACE
Usage
Information
The speed command is supported only on the Management and Fibre Channel interfaces. This command
is not supported on Ethernet interfaces.
● When you manually configure the management port speed, match the speed of the remote device. Dell
EMC highly recommends using auto-negotiation for the management port.
● The no version of this command resets the port speed to the default value auto.
Example
OS10(conf-if-ma-1/1/1)# speed auto
