Menu:

[B],[B]

from Main Menu

Operations A–D disable or enable a single port or a sequential range of same-type
ports (e.g., all SNA ports from port 1 to port 3). The operations can be useful for per-
forming maintenance on ports without shutting down the node. They are also used to
activate a PVC by disabling, then enabling, both ports after the PVC record has been
created.

Select an operation from the menu (Figure 19-1), items A–D. When prompted:

If enabling or disabling a single port, enter:

:

0–7

for physical ports,

8–63

for logical ports. Valid numbers for

physical ports depend on the model of SmartSwitch 1800—see port loca-
tions on
