Enabling And Disabling Switch Ports; Configuring Switch Port Speed And Duplex Setting - Extreme Networks ExtremeWare XOS Guide Manual

Enabling and Disabling Switch Ports

By default, all ports are enabled. To enable or disable one or more ports on a switch, use the following
commands:
enable port [<port_list> | all]
disable port [<port_list> | all]
For example, to disable slot 7, ports 3, 5, and 12 through 15 on a modular switch, use the following
command:
disable port 7:3,7:5,7:12-7:15

Configuring Switch Port Speed and Duplex Setting

autonegotiation, and flow control settings.
ExtremeWare XOS supports the following port types:
10 Gbps ports
●
10/100/1000 Mbps copper ports
●
10/100/1000 Mbps copper ports with Power over Ethernet (PoE)
●
1 Gbps small form factor (SFP) gigabit Ethernet interface converter (GBIC) fiber ports
●
Autonegotiation determines the port speed and duplex setting for each port (except 10 Gbps ports).
You can manually configure the duplex setting and the speed of 10/100/1000 Mbps ports.
The 10/100/1000 Mbps ports can connect to either 10BASE-T, 100BASE-T, or 1000BASE-T networks. By
default, the ports autonegotiate port speed. You can also configure each port for a particular speed
(either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps).
SFP GBIC ports are statically set to 1 Gbps, and their speed cannot be modified; the 10 Gbps ports
always run at full duplex and 10 Gbps.
To configure port speed and duplex setting, use the following command:
configure ports <port_list> auto off speed [10 | 100 | 1000 | 10000] duplex [half |
full]
To configure the system to autonegotiate, use the following command:
configure ports <port_list> auto on
Flow control on Gigabit Ethernet ports is enabled or disabled as part of autonegotiation. If
autonegotiation is set to Off on the ports, flow control is disabled. When autonegotiation is turned On,
flow control is enabled.
