Use this command to enable or disable a node alias agent on one or more ports. Upon packet
reception, node aliases are dynamically assigned to ports enabled with an alias agent, which is the
default setting on Matrix E1 Series devices. Node aliases cannot be statically created, but can be
deleted using the clear node alias command as described in Section 11.2.5.5.
