Extreme Networks Summit1 manual Configuring Ports, Enabling and Disabling Ports

4Configuring Ports

Ports on the Summit switch can be configured in the following ways:

•Enabling and disabling individual ports

•Configuring the port speed (Fast Ethernet ports only)

•Configuring half- or full-duplex mode

•Creating load-sharing groups on multiple ports

•Configuring a port to connect to the Summit Virtual Chassis

•Changing the Quality or Service (QoS) setting for individual ports

For more information on QoS, refer to Chapter 8.

ENABLING AND DISABLING PORTS

By default, all ports are enabled. To enable or disable one or more ports, use the following command:

[enable disable] port <portlist>

For example, to disable ports 3, 5, and 12 through 15 on the Summit2, enter the following:

disable port 3,5,12-15

Even though a port is disabled, the link remains enabled for diagnostic purposes.
