Local Management: Overview, Setup, and Navigation
Setting (Enabling or Disabling) the Port Status
To set the status of an interface (port), proceed as follows:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Status field of the port.
2. Use the Space Bar to toggle to either ENABLED or DISABLED.
3. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command at the bottom of the
screen.
4. Press ENTER. The message “SAVED OK” displays.
Disabling the port status of a backplane connection will block the module from
passing user traffic to the applicable module slot in the SmartSwitch 9000 chassis.
SNMP and other management traffic (e.g., ping and Telnet traffic), however, will
still pass via the backplane to the applicable module slot.
