parameter to bring up a native IP interface for link-level diagnostics, connectivity,
and characterization of SLA.
macaddr Specifies the MAC address which corresponds to the IP address in the ARP table.
netmask Specifies the subnet mask for the specified port or route. Uses a.b.c.d format.
mtu_size Specifies the maximum transfer unit (MTU) size for the IP interface. For GE
ports on a Silkworm 7500 or an FR4-18i blade in a Silkworm 48000, valid values
are from 1500 to 2348. On a FC4-16i in a Silkworm 48000 valid values are from
1500 to 8256.
gateway Specifies the default gateway IP address for the route.
metric Specifies the link metric associated with the route. Valid values are 0 to 255. The
default is 0.
tunnel_id Specifies the FCIP tunnel on the GbE port. Valid values are 0 through 7.
local_ipaddr Specifies the IP address for the specified port.
remote_ipaddr Specifies the remote-side IP address of an FCIP connection.
comm_rate Specifies the committed traffic rate, in Kbit/sec, on the FCIP tunnel. Valid values
are 1,544 to 1,000,000, and 0 for uncommitted.
mirrorport [slot/]port args
Configures mirror port on the local port. A mirror port is used to output mirror
traffic configured by the portMirror command. The user will be prompted to
confirm that the port specified will be enabled as a mirror port. Once a port is
configured as a mirror port, the port can only be used as part of a mirror
connection. Possible args for mirrorport include:
--disable
Disables the configuration. When disabled, a port cannot be a mirror
port.
--enable
Enables the configuration. When mirrorport is enabled to a port, a
mirror connectin can use this port to mirror traffic.
slot
For bladed systems only, specify the slot number of the port to be
configured, followed by a slash (/).
port
Specify the number of the port to be configured, relative to its slot for
bladed systems. Use switchShow for a list of valid ports.
Examples To add an ARP entry:
To create an IP interface:
switch:admin> portcfg arp ge0 add 192.168.255.25 00:01:02:03:04:60
Operation Succeeded
switch:admin> portcfg ipif 4/ge0 create 192.168.100.50 255.255.255.0 1500
Operation Succeeded
