Function Commands supported on all platforms
Synopsis portcfg action [slot/]port arguments
Description Use this command to configure the following parameters on a local FC port.
• portcfg mirrorport - Configure a mirror port on the local port.
• portcfg rscnsupr - Manage registered state change notification (RSCN) suppression on the
local port.
Operands This command has the following operands:
slot For bladed systems only, specifies the slot number of the port to be
configured, followed by a slash (/).
port[-port] Specifies a single port or a range of ports, for example, 3-22 or 1/3-8. port
ranges are supported only with the rscnsupr option.
rscnsupr Manages Registered State Change Notification (RSCN) suppression on the
local port. RSCN suppression is configurable only on FC ports. The syntax for
portCfg rscnsupr is as follows:
portcfg rscnsupr [slot/]port[-port] mode
The following modes are supported with the rscnsupr option:
--
disable Disables the configuration. When disabled, device changes on the port
generate an RSCN to all other end devices that are zoned with this one. By
default, RSCN suppression is disabled on all ports.
--
enable Enables the configuration. When enabled, any device changes on the port will
not generate an RSCN to any other end device.
mirrorport Configures a mirror port on the local port. The port mirroring feature reroutes
data frames between two devices to the mirror port. Port mirroring can aid in
troubleshooting common FC end-to-end communication problems. The
command prompts for confirmation that the specified port be enabled as a
mirror port. Once a port is configured as a mirror port, the port can only be
used as part of a mirror connection.
