Configuring Ports On A Switch; Enabling And Disabling Switch Ports - Extreme Networks ExtremeWare XOS Guide Manual

Configuring Slots and Ports on a Switch
clear slot <slot>
All configuration information related to the slot and the ports on the module is erased. If a module is
present when you issue this command, the module is reset to default settings.
To display information about a particular slot, use the following command:
show slot <slot number>
Information displayed includes:
• Card type, serial number, part number.
• Current state (power down, operational, diagnostic, mismatch).
• Port information.
If no slot is specified, information for all slots is displayed.

Configuring Ports on a Switch

On a modular switch, the port number is a combination of the slot number and the port number. The
nomenclature for the port number is as follows:
slot:port
For example, if an I/O module that has a total of four ports is installed in slot 2 of the chassis, the
following ports are valid:
• 2:1
• 2:2
• 2:3
• 2:4
You can also use wildcard combinations (*) to specify multiple modular slot and port combinations. The
following wildcard combinations are allowed:
• —Specifies all ports on a particular I/O module.
slot:*
• —Specifies a contiguous series of ports on a particular I/O module.
slot:x-slot:y
• —Specifies a contiguous series of ports that begin on one I/O module and end on
slota:x-slotb:y
another I/O module.

Enabling and Disabling Switch Ports

By default, all ports are enabled. To enable or disable one or more ports on a modular switch, use the
following command:
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 ports 7:3,7:5,7:12-7:15
