Set the switch online or offline
This section describes procedures to set the switch online or offline.
These operating states are described as follows:
•
Online -
when the switch is set online, an attached device can log
in to the switch if the port is not blocked. Attached devices can
communicate with each other if they are configured in the same
zone.
•
Offline -
when the switch is set offline, all switch ports are set
offline. The switch transmits the offline sequence (OLS) to
attached devices, and the devices cannot log in to the switch.
