NOTE
This information is sent to the NetVanta 838 by way of an overhead
management channel.
Once completed and if the management VLANs of the GigE SM and the NetVanta 838 are
equivalent, the NetVanta 838 Command Line Interface (CLI) can be accessed via the Inband
Management VLAN.
Modify an Existing Bridge
There are two ways to modify an existing EFM bonding group. The EZ‐EFM application
allows the user to add or remove a link to/from a bonding group while simultaneously speci‐
fying the bonding group upstream and downstream data rates. The EZ‐EFM application
automatically re‐provisions all links in the group to the necessary link rates, whether the rate
is increased or decreased. The links retain and provide the provisioned data rate.
The second way to add or remove a link to/from a group is by directly modifying the EFM
bonding group in the EFM Bonding Group Configuration prompt. This method does not
result in a re‐provisioning of the links in the group, but can result in the links not being set to
the optimum rates; the group not providing the specified data rate if links are removed.
Modify a Bonding Group with EZ-EFM
To modify a bonding group using the EZ‐EFM application, complete the following procedure:
1. From the Enable prompt, type application and press E
2. From the Application Configuration prompt, type ez-efm 1 and press E
3. From the EFM Configuration prompt, type modify <group_name> link <slot/
4. From the EFM Configuration prompt, type modify <group_name> no-link <slot/
