HP StorageWorks Fabric OS 6.1.1 administrator guide (5697-0235, December 2009)

408 Configuring and monitoring FCIP extension services
To verify that a VE_Port or VEX_Port is online, use the switchShow command to view and verify that the
FCIP tunnel is online.
Enabling persistently disabled ports
Before an FCIP tunnel can be used, the associated ports must be persistently enabled.
NOTE: VEX_Port Users: If the fabric is already connected, you must leave the ge0 and ge1 ports disabled
until after you have configured the VEX_Port; this prevents unintentional merging of the two fabrics.
To enable a persistently disabled port:
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role.
2. Issue the portCfgShow command to view ports that are persistently disabled.
3. After identifying the ports, issue the portCfgPersistentEnable command to enable the ports.
4. Issue the portCfgShow command to verify the port is persistently enabled:
