4. Issue the portCfgExPort command to configure the port as an EX_Port with a different FID within the
McDATA Fabric Mode.
This port can now connect to a M-Series switch in a McDATA Fabric mode or McDATA Open mode.
The following example sets port 10/13 to admin-enabled, assigns a Fabric ID of 37, and sets the
M-EOS connection to McDATA Fabric Mode.
switch:admin_06> portcfgexport 10/13 -a 1 -f 37 -m 2
