Specifying Ports
Many commands in this manual require you to specify the port where
you want the command performed. Port numbers are entered in the
following format:
slot.port
Slot
is the number of the slot in the AT-8400 Series switch containing the
line card. The AT-8400 Chassis has 12 slots for line cards.
Port
is the port
number on the line card. For instance, to indicate Port 4 on a line card in
Slot 8, enter:
8.4
For example, to view the parameter settings for the above port, enter:
show switch port=8.4
Some commands allow you to specify more then one port at a time.
Ports on the same line card can be listed individually, as a range, or both.
The following example displays the port parameters for Ports 1, 3, and 5
through 8 on the line card in Slot 3:
show switch port=3.1,3,5-8
Some commands can be performed on ports on different line cards
simultaneously. This example displays the port parameters for Ports 1
and 4 on the line card in Slot 4 and Ports 6 to 8 on the line card in Slot 11:
show switch port=4.1,4,11.6-8
