Usage Guidelines
You can specify a range of interfaces by issuing a command with the following example format:
interfacespacefc1/1space-space5space,spacefc2/5space-space7
Refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Family CLI Configuration Guide for information on port number
allocation.
Use the no shutdown command to enable the interface.
The channel-group auto command enables autocreation of port channels. If autocreation of port
channels is enabled for an interface, you must first disable this configuration before downgrading to
earlier software versions or before configuring the interface in a manually configured channel group.
Examples The following example configures ports 1 to 4 in Fibre Channel interface 9.
switch# config terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
switch(config)# int fc9/1 - 4
The following example enables the Fibre Channel interface.
switch# config terminal
switch(config)# interface fc1/1
switch(config-if)# no shutdown
The following example assigns the FICON port number to the selected Fibre Channel interface.
switch# config terminal
