portCfg
Manages port configuration parameters for FC ports, VE_ports, and GbE/10GbE ports.
Synopsis portcfg action [slot/] port arguments
portcfg action [slot/] ge_port arguments
portcfg action [slot/]ve_port options arguments
portcfg action [slot/][ge_port options arguments
Description Use this command to manage port configuration parameters on FC ports as well as on Gigabit
Ethernet (GbE) ports on the Brocade 7800/FX8-24 and on the Brocade 7500/7500E/FR4-18i.
This command has been modified to support the configuration of FCIP tunnels on the Brocade
7800/FX8-24 platforms. As a result, the behavior of this command in Fabric OS v6.3.0 and later
has changed.
You must use this command in a manner that honors the platform-specific differences in
command syntax and behavior. Some command options are not available on all platforms. Others
behave differently depending on the platform on which they are executed.
Platform specific commands are documented in separate sections that include function, synopsis,
description, operands and examples. Use the following section headings to navigate this page.
