reset switch port
Syntax RESET SWItch POrt={port-list|ALL} [COUNTER]
where 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 Ethernet switch port, including uplink ports.
Description This command resets a port or group of ports on the switch. All packets
queued for reception or transmission on the port are discarded and switch port
counters are reset to zero. If a port had been disabled at the hardware level
with the disable switch port command on page 8-119, when it is enabled it is
reset at the hardware level and autonegotiation of speed and duplex mode is
activated. This command can be used to try to ensure that packets stuck in a
queue are cleared, perhaps after a packet storm of some nature.
The port parameter specifies the ports to be reset.
The counter parameter specifies that switch port counters be reset only. If the
counter parameter is not used, the switch port is fully reset.
Example To reset port 3, use the command:
reset switch port=3
