Changing Port Administrative States
The port administrative state determines the operational state of a port. The port
administrative state exists in two forms: the configured administrative state and
the current administrative state.
■
The configured administrative state is the state that is saved in the switch
configuration and is preserved across switch resets. SANbox Manager
always makes changes to the configured administrative state.
■
The current administrative state is the state that is applied to the port for
temporary purposes and is not preserved across switch resets. The current
administrative state is set using the Set Port command. Refer to the
”Set
Port Command” on page A-38 .
Table 6-7 describes the port administrative states. To change port administrative
state, do the following:
1. Select one or more ports in the faceplate display.
2. Open the Port menu and select Port Properties to open the Port Properties
window.
3. Choose the Port States radio button that corresponds to the port state you
want.
4. Choose the OK button to write the new port state to the switch.
