These steps describe how to configure the example shown in
Select interfaces fc 4/11 through fc 4/12.
Step 1
switch# config t
switch(config)# interface fc 4/11 - 12
Disable the interfaces and take them out of service.
Step 2
switch(config-if)# shutdown
switch(config-if)# out-of-service
Step 3 Return to configuration mode.
switch(config-if)# exit
switch#
Select the interfaces fc 4/1 through fc 4/6.
Step 4
switch# config t
switch(config)# interface fc 4/1 - 6
Configure the port speed, rate mode, and port mode on the interfaces.
Step 5
switch(config-if)# switchport speed auto max 2000
