The Configuration Menu
Temporarily Disabling a Port
To temporarily disable a port without changing its stored configuration attributes, enter the
following command at any prompt:
Main#
/oper/port
<port number>
/dis
Because this configuration sets a temporary state for the port, you do not need to use
apply
or
save.
The port state will revert to its original configuration when the GbE Interconnect
Switch is reset. Refer to the “Operations Menu” section in Chapter 7, for other
operations-level commands.
