--assign
--delete
--show

Enables the FA-PWWN feature on the specified switch ports or AG ports. If a
FA-PWWN is not available for the ports, this command automatically assigners
FA-PWWNs to the ports.
Disables the FA-PWWN feature on the specified switch ports or AG ports. This
commands disables the binding of any existing FA-PWWNs to the specified ports,
it does not delete the port configurations themselves. When you re-enable the
feature, the persistently saved configurations are re-applied to the ports.
Assigns a FA-PWWN to a specified port. You can specify only a single port with
this command (not a port range) and optionally provide a VPWWN. When
executed without the -v option, this command automatically generates a
FA-PWWN and assigns it to the port. When executed with the -v option, and a
user-assigned FA-PWWN already exists, this command fails with an appropriate
message. If an automatically assigned FA-PWWN exists, the user-generated
FA-PWWN overrides the automatically generated FA-PWWN. When you assign a
FA-PWWN to an AG port, you must specify the AG node WWN to uniquely identify
the AG. The new FA-PWWN will take effect upon the next login session.
Deletes the active FA-PWWN from the specified ports. If a port is bound to a
user-assigned FA-PWWN, this command deletes the currently active FA-PWWN
and activates the automatically assigned FA-PWNN. If the active FA-PWWN is
automatically assigned and no user-assigned FA-PWWN exists, this command
deletes the FA-PWWN. When deleting VPWWNs from an AG, you must specify
the AG node WWN and the -port operand is optional; if omitted, all active
FA-PWWNs are deleted from the AG. To delete a single FA-PWWN, use the
delete command with the -v option.
If no active FA-PWWNs exist on the ports, the FA-PWWN feature is disabled. Use
the -enable command to re-enable the feature.
Displays the FA-PWWN configuration for the specified ports or for all ports in the
logical switch. When displaying information for AG ports, you must specify the AG
node WWN.
-port[slot/]port[-port]
Specifies the ports to be configured or displayed on the switch or on the AG,
preceded by a slot number on bladed systems. The port list can include a single
port or a port range, for example, 3-5 or 1/3-5. Port ranges are supported only with
automatically assigned FA-PWWNs, and only on switch ports. You cannot use a
port range on AG ports.
-ag AG_WWN
Specifies the Access Gateway node WWN.
-v VPWWN
Specifies a virtual PWWN to be assigned to the port. This operation deactivates
any existing FA-PWWN on the port.
