Rapier Switch User Guide

Resetting Ethernet ports at the hardware level discards all frames queued for reception or transmission on the port, and restarts autonegotiation of port speed and duplex mode. Ports are reset using the command:

RESET SWITCH PORT={port-listALL} [COUNTER]

To display information about switch ports, use the command:

SHOW SWITCH PORT[={port-listALL}]
