Viewing Fibre Channel port attributes

To view the Fibre Channel port attributes for a single port, in privileged EXEC mode, enter the show
running-config interface FibreChannel
rbridge-id/slot/port command for the port you want to view. To
view the Fibre Channel port attributes for all Fibre Channel ports in the fabric, enter the show running-
config interface FibreChannel
command without any additional parameters.

Whether you view attributes for a single port or for all ports, the settings for the desire-distance, isl-
r_rdy
, trunk-enable, and shutdown attributes are always displayed. The speed, long-distance, vc-
link-init
, and fill-word attributes are displayed only if they are set to nondefault values.

The following example displays the Fibre Channel port attributes for a single port. In this case, the
speed, long-distance, and vc-link-init attributes appear because they have been set to values other
than their default values.

switch# show running-config interface FibreChannel 8/0/1

interface FibreChannel 8/0/1

speed 8gbps

long-distance ld

vc-link-init arb

desire-distance 0

no isl-r_rdy

trunk-enable

shutdown

The following example shows Fibre Channel attributes for all Fibre Channel ports. In this case, the
speed, long-distance, vc-link-init, and fill-word attributes are set to their default values for all of the
interfaces shown.

switch# show running-config interface FibreChannel

interface FibreChannel 3/0/1

desire-distance 0

no isl-r_rdy

trunk-enable

no shutdown

!

interface FibreChannel 3/0/2

desire-distance 0

no isl-r_rdy

trunk-enable

no shutdown

!

interface FibreChannel 3/0/3

desire-distance 0

no isl-r_rdy

trunk-enable

no shutdown

!

(output truncated)

To view the setting of a single attribute on a specific port, regardless of whether the attribute is set to its
default value, enter the show running-config interface FibreChannel rbridge-id/slot/port command.

The following example shows the setting of the speed attribute for port 66/0/1:

switch# show running-config interface FibreChannel 66/0/1 speed interface

FibreChannel 66/0/1 speed auto

Setting Fibre Channel port speed

This procedure sets the ports speed to 1, 2, 4, or 8 Gbps, or to autonegotiate (the default value).

1. In privileged EXEC mode, enter the configure terminal command to enter global configuration

mode.

2. Enter the interface FibreChannel rbridge-id/slot/port command for the port on which you want to set

the speed.

A configuration submode prompt appears.

3. Enter the speed command followed by the desired speed in Gbps.
