Configuring uplink interfaces and downlink
interfaces
After configuring the switch to operate in NPV mode, configure the uplink interfaces and downlink
interfaces.

Configuring uplink interfaces

Uplink interfaces must be FC interfaces, FC aggregate interfaces, or VFC interfaces in NP mode.
To configure an uplink interface:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter FC interface view,
FC aggregate interface
view, or VFC interface
view.
3. Configure the mode of
the interface to as NP.

Configuring downlink interfaces

Downlink interfaces must be FC interfaces, FC aggregate interfaces, or VFC interfaces in F mode.
To configure a downlink interface:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter FC interface
view, FC
aggregate
interface view, or
VFC interface
view.
3. Configure the
mode of the
interface to as F.
