Enabling Ports; Enabling Beacon Recovery - 3Com CoreBuilder 5000 User Manual

Use the SET PORT NETWORK command to assign users to backplane
(hub-level) segments or isolated (module-level) segments. For instance,
to create a module-level ring, you must assign all of the users in the
group to one isolated network (for example, ISOLATED_1).

Enabling Ports

ports on the media module. When a port is enabled, it can transmit to
and receive data from the network to which the module port is
assigned.
The command sequence is:
SET PORT
Use the SET PORT command to disable a port (port 2 on the module in
slot 6):
set port 6.2 mode disable
