Configuring Global Attributes for Fibre Channel Interfaces
Configuring Switch Port Attribute Default Values
You can configure attribute default values for various switch port attributes. These attributes will be applied
globally to all future switch port configurations, even if you do not individually specify them at that time.
To configure switch port attributes, perform this task:
SUMMARY STEPS
1. switch# configuration terminal
2. switch(config)# no system default switchport shutdown san
3. switch(config)# system default switchport shutdown san
4. switch(config)# system default switchport trunk mode auto
DETAILED STEPS
Command or Action
Step 1
switch# configuration terminal
