[B],[B]
from Main Menu
Operations A–D disable or enable a single port or a sequential range of same-type
ports (e.g., all SNA ports from port 1 to port 3). The operations can be useful for per-
forming maintenance on ports without shutting down the node. They are also used to
activate a PVC by disabling, then enabling, both ports after the PVC record has been
created.
Select an operation from the menu (Figure 19-1), items A–D. When prompted:
If enabling or disabling a single port, enter:
RLP Port
:
0–7
for physical ports,
8–63
for logical ports. Valid numbers for
physical ports depend on the model of SmartSwitch 1800—see port loca-
tions on page 6-1.
If enabling or disabling a range of ports, enter:
Port Type
:
1
(X.25),
2
(frame relay),
3
(async),
4
(SNA),
5
(BSCI),
6
(BSCB), or
7
(Voice).
