Specify a slot/port number pair. Valid values for slot and port number vary depending on the switch
type. The mode operand is required: specify 1 to enable ISL R_RDY mode (gateway link) or specify 0 to
disable it.
In the following example, slot 2, port 3 is enabled for a gateway link:
switch:admin> portcfgislmode 2/3, 1
Committing configuration...done.
ISL R_RDY Mode is enabled for port 3. Please make sure the PID
formats are consistent across the entire fabric.

5. Repeat the procedure on the switch at the other end of the gateway.
Checking switch status
This section describes how to verify:
• Switch operation
• High availability features
• Fabric connectivity
• Device connectivity
• Display switches in Access Gateway mode
Switch operation
To check switch operation:
1. Connect to the switch and log in on an account assigned to the admin role.
2. Issue the switchShow command. This command displays a switch summary and a port summary.
3. Check that the switch and ports are online.
4. Issue the switchStatusShow command to further check the status of the switch.
High Availability (HA) features
NOTE: HA features provide maximum reliability and nondisruptive replacement of key hardware and
software modules.
To verify HA features (Directors only):
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role.
2. Issue the chassisShow command to verify the field replaceable units (FRUs).
3. Issue the haShow command to verify that HA is enabled, the heartbeat is up, and that the HA state is
synchronized between the active and standby CP blades.
4. Issue the slotShow to display the inventory and the current status of each slot in the system.
