After the port swap is complete, the contents of either the Port Number or Port Address

fields are swapped. This depends on which field was originally selected in the beginning. If the

Address stays the same and the Port Number information is swapped.

NOTE:

Make sure that the system administrator varies devices offline that are attached to the ports

whose addresses you are going to swap.

NOTE:

Ports that you are going to swap are blocked during this procedure, as swapping ports is

disruptive to port operation.

Collecting maintenance data

The Data Collection option enables you to collect maintenance data that can help support

personnel diagnose system problems. Save this data to a zip file on a CD (or other medium with the

appropriate capacity), and forward it to technical support personnel.

NOTE:

If the Full Volatility feature has been enabled through the switch's maintenance port, a

memory dump file will not be included with the data collection.

To use this option, follow the detailed steps in the appropriate service manual for your Edge Switch.
