Items A–D disable or enable a single port or a sequential range of same-type ports
(e.g., all SNA ports from RLP 1, port 0 to RLP 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 18-1), items A–D. When prompted:
