config.port.speed
Syntax
speed portNumber portSpeed
Purpose This command sets the speed for a port.
Description A port can be configured to operate at 1 Gb/sec, 2 Gb/sec, or a
negotiated speed.
The port speed can be set only to 1 Gb/sec, if the switch speed is
1 Gb/sec. An attempt to set the port speed to 2 Gb/sec or to negotiate
in a switch with a 1 Gb/sec switch speed results in an error message.
If the port speed is set to negotiate, the port and the device to which it
is attached negotiate the data speed setting to either 1 Gb/sec or
2 Gb/sec.
Port speed changes temporarily disrupt port data transfers.
Parameters This command has two required parameters.
