Parameters
ethernet: Changes an FC interface back to a Layer 2 Ethernet interface.
fc: Changes a Layer 2 Ethernet interface to an FC interface.
Usage guidelines
Layer 2 Ethernet interfaces can be changed to FC interfaces.
To change a Layer 2 Ethernet interface to an FC interface, use the port-type fc command in Layer 2
Ethernet interface view. To change an FC interface back to a Layer 2 Ethernet interface, use the port-type
ethernet command in FC interface view.
When the port type of an interface is changed, the following events occur:
• The original interface is deleted.
A new interface is created with the same interface number as the original interface.
•
