portCfgGport

portCfgGport
Designates a port as a G_Port; removes G_Port designation.
SYNOPSIS
portcfggport [slot/]port,mode
DESCRIPTION
Use this command to designate a port as a G_Port. After successful execution of this command, the
switch attempts to initialize the specified port as an F_Port only, and does not attempt loop initialization
(FL_Port) on the port. A port designated as a G_Port can become an E_Port. This configuration can be
cleared but not set on VE/VEX_Ports. Changes made by this command are persistent across switch
reboots or power cycles.
NOTES
The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in
place. Refer to Chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS Commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for
details.
