SWITCH
Initiates an editing session in which to change switch configuration settings. The
system displays each parameter one line at a time and prompts you for a value. For
each parameter, enter a new value or press Enter to accept the current value shown in
brackets. Table 52 describes the Set Config Switch parameters.
NoClose Loop circuit closure prevention. Enables (True) or disables
(False) the loop’s ability to remain in the open state
indefinitely. True reduces the amount of arbitration on a loop
when there is only one device on the loop. The default is
False.
IOStreamGuard I/O Stream Guard. Enable (Enable) or disables (Disable) the
suppression of RSCN messages. I/O Stream Guard should be
enabled only for ports connected to initiator devices. The
default is Disable.
VIEnable Enables (True) or disables (False) VI preference routing. The
default is False. Enabling VIEnable will disable MFSEnable.
PDISCPingEnable Enables (True) or disables (False) the transmission of ping
messages from the switch to all devices on a loop port. The
default is True.
