•
Ports included in a TA share the same port index. The original port index may be removed in the
process. This means that D, I zones referring to these indices are no longer part of the switch. For
details and workarounds, refer to the Fabric OS Administrator's Guide.
•
Device Connection Control (DCC) Policy must be removed from ports prior to creating a TA. You can
re-enable DCC policy after creating the TA.
•
You cannot assign a TA while AG mode is enabled.
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.
Masterless F_Port trunking requires an ISL Trunking license.
OPERANDS
This command supports the following operands:
slot
On enterprise-class platforms, specifies the slot number, followed by a slash (/).
port 1[- port2 ]
Specifies a single port or a port range, relative to its slot on bladed systems. For
example, 9/8-15 on an enterprise-class platform indicates slot 9, ports 8 to 15.
Port ranges should fall in the octet (8 port) trunk range starting from port 0 on a
switch or blade.
--enable
Creates a TA assigned to the specified ports. Use this option with one of the
following operands:
-area area_number
On single processor switches, specifies the port area number for the static TA to
be created. The TA must fall within the 8 port trunk group starting from port 0 on a
switch or blade. The TA must be a default area of an existing port in a given port
group. However, you may add ports to the trunk group even when a trunk group
has already been assigned by using the same area of the octet trunk group. Use
switchShow for a list of valid port area or index numbers.
-index port_index
On enterprise-class platforms, specifies the port index for the static TA to be
created. The port index must fall within the 8 port trunk group starting from port 0
on a switch or blade. The TA must be a default index of an existing port in a given
port group. However, you may add ports to the trunk group even when a trunk
group has already been assigned by using the same index of the octet trunk
group. Use
switchShow for a list of valid port indexes.
--disable
Removes specified ports from a TA. If a port with the same default area as the TA
assigned for the trunk group is removed, all ports in the trunk group must be
explicitly specified for removal.
all
Optionally removes all TA assigned ports on the switch. This option disables
masterless F_Port trunking on all ports. All TA assigned ports must be disabled for
this option to succeed.
--show
Displays masterless F_Port trunking information. When using this option, specify
one of the following operands:
[ slot/ ]/ port1 [- port2 ]
Displays configuration for a specified port or port range.
