Configuring Ethernet Ports
Enabling and Disabling Interfaces
The
interfaces
command is used to enable or disable a specific port, a range of ports, or all ports on an
entire slot.
-> interfaces 2/3 admin-state disable
-> interfaces 2/1-3 admin-state disable
-> interfaces 2 admin-state disable
Configuring a Port Alias
The
interfaces alias
cannot configure an entire switch or a range of ports.) For example:
-> interfaces 2/3 alias ip_phone1
-> interfaces 2/3 alias "ip phones 1"
Note. Spaces must be contained within quotes.
Configuring Maximum Frame Sizes
The
interfaces max-frame-size
a specific port, a range of ports, or all ports on a switch.
For example:
-> interfaces 2/3 max frame 9216
-> interfaces 2/1-3 max frame 9216
-> interfaces 2 max frame 9216
Configuring Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM)
Digital Diagnostics Monitoring allows the switch to monitor the status of a transceiver by reading the
information contained on the transceiver's EEPROM. The transceiver can display Actual, Warning-Low,
Warning-High, Alarm-Low and Alarm-High for the following:
•
Temperature
•
Supply Voltage
•
Current
•
Output Power
•
Input Power
To enable the DDM capability on the switch use the
-> interfaces ddm enable
Traps can be enabled using the
low or high thresholds of the transceiver. For example:
OmniSwitch AOS Release 7 Network Configuration Guide
command is used to configure an alias (i.e., description) for a single port. (You
command can be used to configure the maximum frame size (in bytes) on
interfaces ddm-trap

command. For example, enter:
