7) Admin, Operational Status
Select whether to administratively enable or disable this port. When you enable the port,
the port can transmit and receive data as long as a cable is connected and no physical or
operational problems exist. When you disable a port, the port will not transmit or receive
data even if a cable is connected and the physical connection is operational. If you
disable the port at this point, you can enable it later through the
modvp
command (see
Modifying a Virtual Port on page 19-45).
8) Mirrored Port Status
If the port you are configuring is Ethernet (10 or 10/100 Mbps), you can set up port
mirroring. You can mirror traffic on this port to another like port. Port mirroring is a
useful feature for monitoring traffic on particular ports. It is discussed in more detail later
in this chapter in
Port Mirroring on page 19-57.
If you want to mirror this port, enter a
8=e
, press
<Enter>
and you will be prompted for
the slot and port number of the “mirroring” port (i.e., the port that can “see” all traffic for
this port):
Mirroring vport slot/port ? ( ) :
Enter the mirroring port’s slot and port number and press
<Enter>
.
If port mirroring is not supported on this port, then the following prompt will display:
mirroring not supported on this port type
9) MAC address
Enter the MAC address for this virtual port if it is known.
After the MAC address prompt, the switch confirms the addition of the port to the group
with a message similar to the following:
Adding port 2/8 to Group 6. . .
Make configuration changes to the port until you are satisfied. If you have completed the
final virtual port, then your work is complete. You can always alter Group parameters
(including virtual router parameters for the default
VLAN
) later through the
modvl
command (see Modifying a Group or VLAN on page 19-40) and modify virtual port param-
eters through the
modvp
command (see Modifying a Virtual Port on page 19-45).
