Parameter Description
Port - Link Indicates whether there is an active connection
between a port and the device connected to
the port. Refer to Table 2 on page 45 for
descriptions of the possible statuses.
Module name
Specifies a name for the selected GBIC module.
The module name can be up to 20
alphanumeric characters in length.
Port active Activates the laser on the GBIC port. This is the
default setting.
Port shutdown Deactivates the laser on the GBIC module so
that it can no longer transmit data. The GBIC
port can receive traffic from its end node and
forward the traffic to the multiplexing port.
However, the GBIC port, with its laser disabled,
will not forward any traffic it receives from the
multiplexing port.
If you want to stop a GBIC module from
forwarding traffic to the multiplexing port, refer
to Multiplexing Port Settings on page 49.
