Usage Information
The mode {FC | Eth} command configures a port group to operate at line rate and guarantees no traffic
loss.
To configure oversubscription on a FC interface, use the speed command.
To view the currently active ports and subports, use the show interfaces status command.
The no version of the command resets port-group interfaces to the default Ethernet port mode/speed. Use
the
no mode command before you reset the mode on an interface.
Example
OS10(conf-pg-1/1/2)# mode FC 16g-4x
OS10(conf-pg-1/1/8)# mode Eth 10g-4x
Example: Reset
mode
OS10(conf-pg-1/1/2)# mode FC 16g-4x
OS10(conf-pg-1/1/2)# no mode
OS10(conf-pg-1/1/2)# mode Eth 10g-4x

mode l3
Enables L3 routing on a VLAN after you configure the VLAN scale profile.
Syntax
mode l3
Parameters None
Defaults Not configured
Command Mode INTERFACE VLAN
Usage Information To configure the VLAN scale profile, use the scale-profile vlan command. The scale profile globally applies
L2 mode on all VLANs you create and disables L3 transmission. To enable L3 routing traffic on a VLAN, use the
mode L3 command.
Example
OS10(config)# interface vlan 10
OS10(conf-if-vl-10)# mode L3
Supported
Releases
10.4.0E(X2) or later
mtu
Sets the link maximum transmission unit (MTU) frame size for an Ethernet L2 or L3 interface.
Syntax
mtu value
Parameters value — Enter the maximum frame size in bytes, from 1280 to 65535. Maximum frame size for an S3000-ON is
12000, and S4000-ON is 9216.
Default 1532 bytes
Command Mode INTERFACE
Usage Information
To return to the default MTU value, use the no mtu command. If an IP packet includes a L2 header, the IP MTU
must be at least 32 bytes smaller than the L2 MTU.
Port-channels
All members must have the same link MTU value and the same IP MTU value.
The port channel link MTU and IP MTU must be less than or equal to the link MTU and IP MTU values you
configure on the channel members. For example, if the members have a link MTU of 2100 and an IP MTU
2000, the port channel’s MTU values cannot be higher than 2100 for link MTU or 2000 bytes for IP MTU.
