The individual ports on the switches in a stack are specified in the
command line interface with the PORT parameter. The format of the
parameter is shown in Figure 66.

Here is an example of the PORT parameter on a switch in a stack. It uses
the INTERFACE command to enter the Port Interface mode for ports 15
and 17 on the front panel of the switch with the ID number 2:
awplus> enable
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# interface port2.0.15,port2.0.17
For instructions on the command line interface and the PORT parameter,
refer to the Software Reference for x550 Series Switches, AlliedWare Plus
