e_d_tov
Configures the E_D_TOV FC timer value for every vfabric.
Syntax
e_d_tov timeout-val
Parameters timeout-val—Valid values are from 1000 to 10000.
Defaults 2000 ms
Command Mode Vfabric CONFIGURATION
Usage
Information
● The configurations are supported only in the multiswitch mode.
● If you do not receive an expected response within the expected time, then consider the condition as
an error condition. This timer is used for the error conditions during link initialization, and the principal
switch election. Match this value with the other end during port initialization. This type of
configuration is not permitted when vfabric is active.
● If the configured E_D_TOV value is not same on both the sides of the port, then the port is isolated.
Ensure to configure the same E_D_TOV value on both the sides.
● You can change the E_D_TOV value only when vfabric is in inactive state. The vfabric is activated only
by adding vlan and fcmap configuration under the vfabric configuration view. Ensure to configure
E_D_TOV before configuring the vlan and fcmap in the vfabric configuration view.
● The no version of this command resets to the default value.
Example
OS10(conf-vfabric-<vfabric-id>)#e_d_tov 3000

fc port-mode F | E
Configures the FC switch port mode.
Syntax
fc port-mode F | E
Parameters None
Defaults The port mode is:
● F—Multiswitch mode
● N—NPG mode
Command Mode Fibre Channel INTERFACE
Usage
Information
● The configurations are supported only in the multiswitch mode. In F_port mode, all the ports operate
as F Port. On enabling the multiswitch mode, a port works as either a F_port or an E_port.
● To change modes, disable current mode and enable the new mode. This operation leads to traffic
disruption on the corresponding port.
● You can disable the multiswitch mode only if you delete the related configurations.
● For NPG switch mode, the default port mode is N. You can change the port mode to F. The NPG
switch mode does not support E port mode.
● In F port switch mode, you cannot change the port mode to E or F.
● The no form of this command resets the fc port mode to the default value.
Example
OS10(config-if-fc-1/1/1)#fc port-mode E
