Setting the same speed for all ports on the switch

1.
Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
2.
Issue the switchCfgSpeed command:
switchcfgspeed speedlevel
where speedlevel specifies the speed of the link:
• 0—Auto-negotiating mode. The port automatically configures for the highest speed.
• 1—one Gbps mode. Fixes the port at a speed of one Gbps. Changing the speed to one Gbps
causes the port to be excluded from the trunk group.
• 2—two Gbps mode. Fixes the port at a speed of two Gbps.
• 4—four Gbps mode. Fixes the port at a speed of four Gbps. (HP StorageWorks 4/8 SAN Switch,
4/16 SAN Switch, Brocade 4Gb SAN Switch for HP p-Class BladeSystem, Brocade 4Gb SAN
Switch for HP c-Class BladeSystem, SAN Switch 4/32, 4/64 SAN Switch, SAN Switch 4/32B, 400

The following example sets the speed for all ports on the switch to autonegotiate:
switch:admin> switchcfgspeed 0
Committing configuration...done.

Displaying trunking information

The trunkShow command offers an efficient means of listing out all the trunks and members of a trunk.
You can easily discover the peer ports for disabling a port, disconnecting or adding additional members.
Viewing trunks is also useful for when you want to ensure that trunks are formed correctly.
