■ port-list is a port number, range (specified as n-m), or comma-separated list
of numbers and/or ranges. Port numbers start at 1 and end at m, where m
is the highest numbered switch Ethernet port, including uplink ports.
Description This command disables one or more of:
■ a port or group of ports on the switch
■ flow control on the port(s)
■ the link belonging to any specified port(s)
When a port is disabled, it no longer sends or receives frames. Ports should be
disabled when faulty wiring or equipment is attached to them, or as a security
measure to stop access from intruders. Switch ports are enabled by default.
The port parameter specifies the port or ports that will be affected by the
command.
The flow parameter specifies the type of flow control to be disabled for the
port. If pause is specified, flow control for full duplex ports by sending pause
frames is disabled. pause is enabled by default.
The link parameter specifies whether fixed copper Ethernet ports are either
enabled or disabled at the hardware level. If disable is specified, this is the
equivalent of disconnecting the cable. If the link parameter is not specified, the
link remains physically enabled. The default is enable.
Example To disable ports 2, 3, 4 and 6, use the command:
dis swi po=2-4,6
