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 line card in slot 2 in a switch with the ID number 3:
awplus> enable
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# interface port3.2.15,port3.2.17

Description
Designates the switch's ID number. The
number, which can be from 1 to 4,
identifies the switch in a VCStack. A switch
displays its ID number on the Switch ID
LED on its management panel.
If the Switch ID LED is displaying 0 (zero),
VCStack is disabled and the switch is
functioning as a stand-alone device. The
ID number for a stand-alone switch is 1.
Designates the slot number with the line
card whose ports you want to configure.
For the SBx908 GEN2 Switch this value
can be 1 to 8.
Designates a port number on an SBx908
GEN2 Ethernet line card.
