portCfg
2
ge_port Specifies the number of the port to be configured, relative to its slot for
bladed systems. The GbE ports on the Brocade 7500/7500E, and FR4-18i
are numbered ge0 - ge1. Use the switchShow command for a list of valid
ports.
arp Optionally adds entries to the address resolution protocol (ARP) table or
deletes entries from ARP table. Can also be used to flush the entire table. The
syntax for portcfg arp is as follows:
portcfg arp [slot/][ge]port options arguments
Valid options and arguments for arp include:
add ipaddr macaddr
Adds a static ARP entry to the ARP table. Specify an IP address and a MAC
address for each entry. Use portShow arp with the -lmac option to get the
MAC address.
delete ipaddr
Deletes a static ARP entry from the ARP table. Only the IP address must be
specified to delete the entry.
flush Flushes the ARP table. Only dynamic entries can be flushed, static entries
cannot be cleared.
fciptunnel Creates, modifies, or deletes a Fibre Channel over IP (FCIP) tunnel. You can
configure up to a maximum of eight FCIP tunnels per GbE port. The syntax for
portCfg fciptunnel is as follows:
portcfg fciptunnel [slot/][ge]port options arguments [optional_arguments]
The following options and arguments are supported with fciptunnel:
create tunnel_id dest_ipaddr src_ipaddr comm_rate
Creates an FCIP tunnel. You must specify a tunnel ID, destination and source
IP address, and committed rate when creating an FCIP tunnel. Other
configuration parameters are optional, and can be added later.
tunnel_id Specifies the FCIP tunnel on the GbE port. Valid values are 0-7.
dest_ipaddr Specifies the IP address for the remote end of the FCIP tunnel. IPv6
addresses are supported on systems running v6.0 or later.
src_ipaddr Specifies the IP address for the local end of the FCIP tunnel. IPv6
addresses are supported on systems running v6.0 or later.
comm_rate Specifies the committed traffic rate on the FCIP tunnel in Kbps. Valid
range is 1,544 to 1,000,000. Specify 0 for an uncommitted tunnel.
Uncommitted tunnels compete for bandwidth. Changing comm_rate is
potentially disruptive.
modify tunnel_id
[arguments]
Modifies the properties of an existing FCIP tunnel. This operation disrupts the
traffic on the specified FCIP tunnel for a brief period of time. If IPsec is
enabled on the FCIP tunnel, the tunnel cannot be modified. To modify the
tunnel attributes, you must delete and re-create the tunnel.
delete tunnel_id
Deletes the specified FCIP tunnel.
