portCfgGPort
Designates a port as a G_Port.
Synopsis portcfggport [slotnumber/]portnumber, mode
Description Use this command to designate a port as a G_Port. After this is done, the switch attempts to
initialize that port as an F_Port only, and does not attempt loop initialization (FL_Port) on the port. A
port designated as a G_Port can become an E_Port. This configuration can be cleared but not set
on VE/VEX_Ports.
Changes made by this command are persistent across switch reboots or power cycles.
The execution of this command is subject to Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place.
Operands This command has the following operands:
slotnumber For bladed systems only, specify the slot number of the port to be configured,
followed by a slash (/).
portnumber Specify the number of the port to be configured, relative to its slot for bladed
systems. Use switchShow to display a list of valid ports.
mode Specify a value of 1 to designate the port as a G_Port or specify a value of 0
to remove the G_Port designation from the port. A value of 0 is the default
port state. This operand is required.
Examples To configure a port as a locked G_Port:
switch:admin> portcfggport 1/3, 1
