These operations disable or enable a single port or a sequential range of same-type
ports (e.g., all SNA ports from LP 1, port 0 to LP 4, port 3). The operations can be
useful for performing maintenance on ports without shutting down the node. They are
also used to activate a PVC by disabling, then enabling, both ports after the PVC
record has been created.
Select an operation from the menu (Figure 16-1), items A–D. When prompted:
