clear port port-list name
Configuring media type on a dual-interface gigabit ethernet port
(2380 only)
The gigabit Ethernet ports on a 2380 switch have two physical interfaces: a 1000BASE-TX copper interface
and a 1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-LX fiber interface. The copper interface is provided by a built-in RJ-45
connector. The fiber interface is optional and requires insertion of a Gigabit interface converter (GBIC).
Only one interface can be active on a port. By default, the GBIC (fiber) interface is active. You can configure
a port to use its the RJ-45 (copper) interface instead.
If you set the port interface to RJ-45 on a port that already has an active fiber link, WSS Software immediately
changes the link to the copper interface.
To disable the fiber interface and enable the copper interface on a 2380 port, use the following command:
set port media-type port-list rj45
To disable the copper interface and reenable the fiber interface on a 2380 port, use the following command:
clear port media-type port-list
To display the enabled interface type for each port, use the following command:
show port media-type [port-list]
To disable the fiber interface and enable the copper interface of port 2 on a 2380 switch and verify the change,
type the following commands:
2380# set port media-type 2 rj45
2380# show port media-type
