Restoring The Flow Control Wait Time; Setting Interface Line Speed - Alcatel OmniSwitch 6624 Network Configuration Manual

Configuring Ethernet Ports

Restoring the Flow Control Wait Time

To restore the flow control wait time (i.e., set it back to 0) for an entire switch, enter flow followed by the
slot number and no wait. For example, to restore the flow control wait time to 0 seconds on slot 2 enter:
-> flow 2 no wait
To restore the flow control wait time (i.e., set it back to 0) for a single port, enter interfaces followed by
the slot number, a slash (/), the port number, and no wait. For example, to restore the flow control wait
time of 0 seconds on slot 2 port 3 enter:
-> flow 2/3 no wait
To restore the flow control wait time (i.e., set it back to 0) for a range of ports, enter flow followed by the
slot number, a slash (/), the first port number, a hyphen (-), the last port number, and no wait. For exam-
ple, to restore the flow control wait time of 0 seconds on ports 1 through 3 on slot 2 enter:
-> flow 2/1-3 no wait
As an option, you can document the interface type by entering ethernet, fastethernet, or gigaethernet
before the slot number. For example, to restore the flow control wait time of 0 seconds on slot 2 port 3 and
document the interface type as Fast Ethernet enter:
-> flow fastethernet 2/3 no wait

Setting Interface Line Speed

The interfaces speed
on an entire switch (slot) to 10 (10 Mbps Ethernet), 100 (100 Mbps Fast Ethernet), 1000 (1000 Mbps
Gigabit Ethernet), or auto (auto-sensing). The auto setting automatically detects and matches the line
speed of the attached device. (Available settings for this command depend on the available line speeds of
your hardware interface. See the
"OmniSwitch 6600-U24" on page 1-7
To set the line speed on an entire switch enter interfaces followed by the slot number and the desired
speed. For example, to set slot 2 to 100 Mbps enter:
-> interfaces 2 speed 100
To set the line speed on a single port enter interfaces followed by the slot number, a slash (/), the port
number, and the desired speed. For example, to set the line speed on slot 2 port 3 at 100 Mbps enter:
-> interfaces 2/3 speed 100
To set the line speed on a range of ports enter interfaces followed by the slot number, a slash (/), the first
port number, a hyphen (-), the last port number, and the desired speed. For example, to set the line speed
on ports 1 through 3 on slot 2 at 100 Mbps enter:
-> interfaces 2/1-3 speed 100
