Chapter 5: Powering On the Switch

80

The command line interface in the management software on the switch 
has a parameter that you use to specify the individual ports. The 
parameter is the PORT parameter and Figure 42 shows its format.

Figure 42. PORT Parameter in the Command Line Interface

The first number is the switch’s ID number. The ID number for stand-alone 
switches is not the value 0 displayed on the Switch ID LEDs. Rather, it is 
1. Be sure to enter 1, not 0, as the ID number in the PORT parameter 
when configuring ports on stand-alone switches.

The module ID value is used with multi-module products. This value does 
not apply to the x510 Series switches and should always be 0.

The third value is a port number on the switch. You may specify only one 
port number in a PORT parameter, but you may specify more than one 
PORT parameter in many commands where the parameter is supported.

Here is an example of the PORT parameter on a stand-alone switch. It 
uses the INTERFACE command to enter the Port Interface mode for ports 
15 and 17:

awplus> enable
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# interface port1.0.15,port1.0.17

For instructions on the command line interface and the PORT parameter, 
refer to the Software Reference for x510 Series Switches, AlliedWare Plus 
Operating System.
