modify fibre_address
Description Use this command to modify port addresses. It is available for fibre ports only.
Syntax modify fibre_address <portname...>, <address...>
Arguments <portname...>
The port whose address is to be modified. <portname> can be specified as one port, a set of
ports, or a range of ports (for example, 1A or 1A:1C:1D or 1A-1E). Port names must be
specified in truncated form (for example, 1A and not CL1-A) because the hyphen (-) is used to
specify a range.
<address...>
The addresses to be set. The fibre addresses are specified as AL-PA values. The number of values
specified should be equal the number of port names specified. If only one address is specified,
all the ports are assigned addresses consecutively starting from the address specified. If the
number of values specified is equal to the number of port names, then there is a one-to-one
correspondence between the port names and the addresses. In other cases this command
generates an error.
Example
modify fibre_address 1A,EF
modify fibre_address 1A:1B-1E,EF
modify fibre_address 1A:1B,EF:E2
