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.
