activate switch port
Syntax ACTivate SWItch POrt={port-list|ALL} {AUTOnegotiate}
{LOCK}
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 activates autonegotiation of port speed and duplex mode for a
port or a group of ports.
The port parameter specifies the port or ports for which autonegotiation is to
be activated. Only ports in the list that are set to autonegotiate are actually
affected by this command. Ports with a fixed speed setting or that belong to a
trunk group are not modified.
A port that has been added to LACP autonegotiates until it actively becomes
part of an aggregated link (i.e. trunked), when it then operates at the speed of
the aggregated link.
The autonegotiate parameter specifies that the port is to activate the
autonegotiation process. The port begins to autonegotiate link speed and
duplex mode.
The lock parameter manually locks the switch port before it reaches its
learning limit so that no new addresses are automatically learned. The learn
parameter for the port is set to the current number of learned MAC addresses.
Examples To activate autonegotiation on ports 1-8 and port 10, use the command:
act swi po=1-8,10 auto
