configure
Figures 4-1 through 4-3 show examples of the configure command, which is used to
set some switch configuration parameters. This command may not be executed on an
enabled switch; you must first disable the switch using the switchDisable command.
The configure command is navigated by entering a series of collapsible top-level
menus. Each menu divides up the various switch configuration parameters into logical
groupings, which include: fabric parameters, virtual channel parameters, arbitrated
loop parameters, and system service parameters.
Each top level menu and its associated submenus consist of a text prompt, a list of
acceptable values, and the current value (shown in brackets). The current value is
used in the absence of an entered value when a carriage return is the only input
