AG configuration changes are saved persistently as config keys. Use the portCfgnPort command to
set a port as N_Port.
Notes AG is supported only on selected Brocade hardware platforms. Refer to the Access Gateway
Administrator's Guide for Hardware support and AG configuration procedures.
In non-AG mode, the only two actions available are --modeenable and --modeshow.
Operands The command takes as input an action and its associated arguments. Without any specified action,
the command prints out the usage.

Displays command usage.
Displays the current configuration of the Access Gateway. This includes all
N_Ports and F_Ports that are currently online, failover and failback settings
as well as any online F_Ports that are currently mapped to N_Ports. Failover
and failback policies are displayed as enabled (1) or disabled (0).
Displays the current Access Gateway operating mode of the switch as either
enabled or disabled.
Enables Access Gateway mode on a switch. Long distance mode settings
should be cleared for all ports on the NPIV edge switch to which the AG is
connected. Otherwise, the NPIV switch port displays the long distance port
type along with the F_Port.
Disables Access Gateway mode on a switch. After AG mode is disabled, the
switch reboots automatically and will come online with default zone access
set to "No Access". In order to merge the switch to a fabric, set the default
zone to "All Access" and disable/enable the E_Port.
Displays the supported AG Port policies and their status as either enabled or
disabled. AG supports three types of policies:
•
Port Grouping (pg) policy: This policy manages failover of an F_Port to a
set of related N_Ports in a port group.
•
Auto Port Configuration (auto): When this policy is enabled, the AG
enabled switch automatically detects available ports and map F_Ports to
N_Ports. Auto Port Configuration is disabled by default.
•
Advanced Device Security (ADS) policy. This policy restricts access to the
Fabric at the AG level to a set of authorized devices. Unauthorized access
is rejected and a message is logged in RASLOG. You can configure the list
of allowed devices for each F_Port by specifying their Port WWN. Refer to
the ag --ads* commands for information on managing advanced device
security. ADS policy is disabled by default, which means that all devices
can connect to the switch.
Enables the specified port policy for the Access Gateway. When a new policy
is enabled, all port related configuration settings are lost. Use the
configUpload command to save the current port configuration. Valid policies
are:
pg Enables the port grouping policy. A default port group "pg0" is created, which
includes all configured N_Ports assigned to the policy. Enabling port grouping
policy disables the Get Fabric Name policy.
