4.5 USING LCM TO MANAGE THE FN10

The LCM commands that enable you to manage the FN10 include:

These LCM commands are described in the sections that follow.

4.5.1 Disabling a Port

There can be times when you need to disable a specific Ethernet port, for example, after you have determined that there is faulty equipment. Disabling a port effectively stops all bridging functions for that port. Disabled ports do not accept SNMP packets, and therefore cannot communicate with an NMS.

To disable a port, or port range, at the LCM prompt:

1.Type disable <PORT-RANGE>

For example, disable 7-9would disable ports 7, 8, and 9.

LCM responds:

Port 7: Disabled

Port 8: Disabled

Port 9: Disabled

Once an Ethernet port is disabled, it will be disabled until you enable it again. Resetting the FN10 will not enable a port that has been disabled.
