Q

If you are connected through the management port, modifying the MGMT 
Ethernet terminates any active network GUI and CLI sessions, requiring relogin. If 
you are using the CLI on the serial console, the connection is not disrupted.

Changes the specified keywords—type, capability, speed—for the specified Fibre 
Channel port number.

At least one of the optional keywords is required:

modify port [port number]
An integer 1-8 for SANbox 8200-08 SSP/SANbox 8202-08 SSP or 1-16 for 
SANbox 8202-16 SSP to indicate the Fibre Channel port.

capability [port capability]
FCP_TARGET

: to enable the port to be used as a front-end (looks like a storage 

array port).

FCP_INITIATOR

: to initiate back-end traffic to disks (cannot receive storage).

both

: traffic can go both ways.

speed [port speed]
1G

, 2G, NEGOTIATE

type [port type]
N_PORT

: the port functions only in conjunction with a single-attached device that is 

capable of fabric mode operation.

AUTO

: enables the port to initialize in the most appropriate mode, either loop 

(NL_Port) or fabric (N_Port), according to what is on the other end of the link.

Ports should generally run in fabric mode because fabric yields better 
throughput and links recover more quickly.

You must restart the system for port capability or port speed changes to take 
effect.
