N_Port configurations
2
Unlocking the N_Port configuration automatically changes the port to an F_Port. When you unlock
an N_Port, the F_Ports are automatically unmapped and disabled.
Following are procedures for unlocking N_Ports that are in locked mode.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role.
2. Enter the portcfgnport command to display which ports on the switch are locked as N_Ports.
NOTE
The portcfgnport command only works when the Port Grouping policy is enabled.
switch:admin> portcfgnport
Ports 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

3. Enter the portcfgnport command and specify the port number and 0 (zero) to unlock N_Port
mode.
switch:admin> portcfgnport 10 0
Alternatively, to lock a port in N_Port mode, enter the portcfgnport and specify the port number
and 1.
switch:admin> portcfgnport 10 1
