Basic Switch Configuration Procedures

Configuring a Static Route Between Two Ports

To configure a static route between two ports:

1.Log in to the switch as the admin user.

2.At the command line, enter the following command: uRouteConfig port, domain, outputport

where port is the port to be statically routed; can be either an F_Port or an E_Port. domain is the domain ID of the specified target switch, and outputport is the output port where traffic is to be forwarded.

After you issue this command, and if outputport is a usable port, all frames coming in from a specified port addressed to the specified domain are routed through the specified outputport.

If the outputport is not usable, the routing assignment is not affected. When outputport becomes usable the static route assignment for the port is enforced.

Using static routes can affect load sharing. If a large number of routes are statically configured to the same output port, the ability of the switch to achieve optimum load sharing may be impaired.

Displaying Help Information for a Telnet Command

To display help information about a Telnet command:

1.Log in to the switch as the admin user.

2.At the command line, enter the following command: help command

where command is the command name you would like help with.
