port

port - configure a port of a card on a chassis.

SYNOPSIS

port sub-command options

DESCRIPTION

The port command is used to configure the properties of a port of a card on a chassis.

For Sonet ports which support DCC (Data Communications Channel) streams and flows, ports may be set transmit a combination of DCC packets as streams, advanced streams or flows and SPE (Synchronous Payload Envelope) packets as streams, advanced streams or flows. See the transmitMode option for further details.

Note: The setDefault sub-command sets all options at default values, as indicated here. These values are a consistent setting for 10/100 ethernet cards and may or may not be appropriate for other cards. In general, the sequence:

port setDefault

port set $chassis $card $port

fails.

The setFactoryDefaults sub-command, which relates to a particular port, sets all options at default values appropriate for the type of port. The sequence:

port setFactoryDefaults $chassis $card $port

port set $chassis $card $port

always succeeds. For multi-type boards, for example, OC192/10GE WAN, the board type is forced to one particular setting and may not be appropriate.

port reset chasID cardID portID

Deletes all streams from a port. Current configuration is not affected. Note: In order for port reset to take effect, stream write or ixWriteConfigToHardware commands should be used to commit the changes to hardware. Specific errors are:

port resetStreamProtocolStack chasID cardID portID

Sets the factory default values for all configuration options on a particular port's stream protocol stack. When this command runs, all protocols on the port are reset to their factory default state.

If the protocol stack is successfully reset, TCL_OK is returned, else TCL_ERROR is returned.

A TCL_ERROR is returned when:

port restartAutoNegotiation chasID cardID portID

Causes auto-negotiation of duplex and speed to be restarted on the indicated port.

port set chasID cardID portID

Sets the configuration of the port in IxHAL with id portID on card cardID, chassis chasID by reading the configuration option values set by the port config option value command. Specific errors are:

port setDefault

Sets to IxTclHal default values for all configuration options.

port setFactoryDefaults chasID cardID portID

Sets the factory defaults to the port. The factory defaults vary depending on the particular port type. The following two tables lists the factory defaults associated with all current board types. For ports which support streams, one default stream is written. The mode of dual PHY ports is set back to its default state. Options not mentioned in the table have a constant value as shown in the STANDARD OPTIONS section above.

Specific errors are:

port setModeDefaults chasID cardID portID

Sets the factory default values for all configuration options on a particular port for the current setting of portMode. The portMode option is not changed. See the tables contained in the description of the setMode sub-command for a listing of the default values.

port setPhyMode phyMode chasID cardID portID

For cards which support both Copper, Fiber and SGMII PHY modes, this command sets the current PHY mode.

Usage

portPhyModeSgmii 2 SGMII

Specific errors are:

port setReceiveMode receiveMode chasID cardID portID

Sets the receive mode on the port. See the description for receiveMode in the STANDARD OPTIONS section of this command for the values of receiveMode. Return codes are:

Code

Usage

0

(TCL_OK) The command succeeded and a write to hardware is needed, either with port write or ixWritePortsToHrdware.

200

(ixTcl_noWriteRequired) No write is needed to set the mode, because the port is already in that mode.

101

(ixTcl_unsupportedFeature) This port type will not support the requested receive mode.

100

(ixTcl_notAvail) This port is owned by another user.

port setTransmitMode transmitMode chasID cardID portID

Sets the transmission mode on the port. See the description for transmitMode in the STANDARD OPTIONS section of this command for the values of transmitMode. See the return codes in port setReceivedMode.

port write chasID cardID portID

Writes or commits the changes in IxHAL to hardware for the port. Before using this command, use the port set command to configure the port related parameters (speed, duplex mode, autonegotiation, flow control, loopback, rxTxMode, and ignoreLink) in IxHAL. Specific errors are:

DEPRECATED COMMANDS

port getInterface chasID cardID portID

Gets the interface type of the port.

port setparm chasID cardID portID

Modify the configuration options of the port on a specific card and chassis. It is similar to the port config option value command but allows a single option to be set in IxTclHAL on a particular port.

port writeReceiveMode chasID cardID portID

Sets up the hardware to capture or packet group modes for this port.

Note: OBSOLETE. This command is the same as write.

port writeTransmitMode chasID cardID portID

Sets up the hardware to packet streams or packet flow mode for this port. Note: OBSOLETE. This command is the same as write.
