6.1.2x and 6.2.0c

or 6.2.0c)
If version 6.2.0d was installed in the
factory, the default setting is mode 1
for the internal ports and mode 0 for
the external ports. The setting can be
changed by the user on a port-by-port
basis and will be persistent. Upgrad-
ing to a 6.3.0x version does not affect
the current mode settings.
If a pre-6.2.0d version was installed
in the factory, the default setting for
all internal and external ports is mode
0. The setting can be changed by the
user on a port-by-port basis and will
be persistent. Upgrading to one of the
versions in the left column does not
affect the current mode settings.
The default setting for all ports is mode
0, regardless of what Fabric OS version
was previously installed. However, ports
previously set to mode 1 by the user via
the portcfgfillword command are
persistent, and will therefore remain at
mode 1 after Fabric OS upgrade.
