The configure command runs in interactive mode and presents you with a series of hierarchical
menus. Each top-level menu and its associated submenus consist of a text prompt, a selection of
valid values, and a default value (in brackets).
The following keys control the execution of the command:
Return
When entered at a prompt with no preceding input, the command accepts the
default value (if applicable) and moves to the next prompt.
Interrupt (Ctrl-C)
Aborts the command immediately and ignores all changes made.
End-of-file (Ctrl-D)
When entered at a prompt with no preceding input, terminates the command
and saves changes made.
The following parameters can be modified with the configure command:
Switch Fabric Settings
Fabric settings control the overall behavior and operation of the fabric. Some of these settings,
such as the domain, are assigned automatically and may differ from one switch to another in a
given fabric. Other parameters, such as buffer-to-buffer credit or timeout values, can be modified to
suit specific applications or operating environments but must be in agreement among all switches
to allow formation of the fabric.
