Disable a port persistently.
Synopsis

Availability

Release
V3.1.x and V4.1.x
Description
Use this command to persistently disable a port. Persistently disabled ports remain
disabled across power cycles, switch reboots, and switch enables. By default a
port is enabled persistently. The change in configuration is effective immediately.
The persistent disable configuration overrides all other port configurations but it
does not change the configuration of any other port settings. Use the
portcfgpersistentenable command to enable a port persistently. A
persistent enabled port re-enables all previously set port configurations of that
port.
The switch will still run the power on diagnostics and initialize a persistently
disabled port. A persistently disabled port can temporarily be enabled by
portenable command. The switchenable command will not enable the
persistently disabled ports of that switch.
The persistent switch disable or enable configuration does not alter the persistent
disable or enable configurations of the ports within the switch.
Like all other configurable port attributes, port persistent disable will not be
affected by configdefault command. But it will be cleared by
portcfgdefault command, because a port, by default, is enabled
persistently.
