Table 51: Set Config port parameters
Parameter Description
AdminState Port administrative state:
■ Online – Activates and prepares the port to send data. This
is the default.
■ Offline – Prevents the port from receiving signal and
accepting a device login.
■ Diagnostics – Prepares the port for testing and prevents the
port from accepting a device login.
■ Down – Disables the port by removing power from the port
lasers.
LinkSpeed Transmission speed: 2 Gbps or Auto. The default is Auto.
PortType Port type: GL, G, F, FL, Donor. The default is GL.
SymbolicPortName Descriptive name for the port. The name can be up to 32
characters excluding #, semicolon (;), and comma (,). The
default is Port n where n is the port number.
ALFairness Arbitration loop fairness. Enables (True) or disables (False) the
switch’s priority to arbitrate on the loop. The default is False.
DeviceScanEnabled Enables (True) or disables (False) the scanning of the
connected device for FC-4 descriptor information during login.
The default is True.
ForceOfflineRSCN Enables (False) or disables (True) the immediate transmission
of RSCN messages when communication between a port and
a device is interrupted. If enabled, the RSCN message is
delayed for 200 ms for locally attached devices and 400 ms
for devices connected through other switches. The default is
False. This parameter is ignored if IOStreamGuard is enabled.
ARB_FF Send ARB_FF (True) instead of IDLEs (False) on the loop. The
default is False.
InteropCredit Interoperability credit. The number of buffer-to-buffer credits

interoperability credits is necessary only for E_Ports that are
connected to non-FC-SW-2-compliant switches. (not
supported)
ExtCredit Extended credits. The number of port buffer credits that this
port can acquire from donor ports. The default is 0.
FANEnable Fabric address notification. Enables (True) or disables (False)
the communication of the FL_Port address, port name, and
node name to the logged-in NL_Port. The default is True.
LCFEnable Link control frame preference routing. Enables (True) or
disables (False) preferred routing of frames with R_CTL =
1100. The default is False. Enabling LCFEnable will disable
MFSEnable.
MFSEnable Multi-Frame Sequence bundling. Prevents (True) or allows
(False) the interleaving of frames in a sequence. The default is
False. Enabling MFSEnable disables LCFEnable and
VIEnable.
MSEnable Management server enable. Enables (True) or disables (False)
management server on this port. The default is True.
