SET PORT FORCE_
CONFIGURATION
Use the SET PORT FORCE_CONFIGURATION command to force a network to use
fiber backbone (FB) or fiber link (FL) signaling. This command applies to the
CoreBuilder 5000 EtherFlex Module (Model Number 6104M-MOD) with a
10BASE-FB/FL I/O Card.
Because the Ethernet fiber ports in your configuration can be FB or FL, this
command allows your network to be compatible with your existing equipment.
Format
Example
The following command forces the network to use fiber backbone signaling for
port 1 in slot 3.1:
CB5000> set port 3.1 force_configuration fb_mode
