Parameter
Description
online
Activates and prepares the ports to send data. This is the default.

Prevents the ports from receiving signal and accepting a device login.

Prepares the ports for testing and prevents each port from accepting a

changes that have been made using the Set Switch State command. Therefore, to avoid unexpected
results, do not manage switch administrative states with QuickTools or Enterprise Fabric
Management Suite and the CLI at the same time.
