Setting Ethernet Parameters for Non Combo Ports
The following sections describe how to use CLI commands to configure non combo ports. (See the tables
in “Valid Port Settings on OmniSwitch 6800 Series Switches” on page 1-5, “Valid Port Settings on
OmniSwitch 6850 Series Switches” on page 1-5, and “Valid Port Settings on OmniSwitch 9000 Series
Switches” on page 1-6 for more information.)
• Ports 1–20 on OmniSwitch 6800-24 and OmniSwitch 6850-24 switches are non combo ports.
• Ports 1–44 on OmniSwitch 6800-48 and OmniSwitch 6850-48 switches are non combo ports.
While you can use the CLI commands described in the following sections to configure combo ports, please
keep in mind that configuration changes made on combo ports configured as either forced fiber or
preferred fiber will only be made on the MiniGBIC SFP fiber ports and not to the copper RJ-45 10/100/
1000 ports.
Similarly, configuration changes made on combo ports configured as either forced copper or preferred
copper, will only be made on the copper RJ-45 10/100/1000 ports and not to the MiniGBIC SFP fiber port.
See “Setting Combo Ethernet Port Parameters on OmniSwitch 6800 and 6850 Switches” on page 1-18 for
more information on configuring combo ports.
Setting Interface Line Speed
The interfaces speed command is used to set the line speed on a specific port, a range of ports, or all ports
on an entire switch (slot) to 10 (10 Mbps Ethernet), 100 (100 Mbps Ethernet), 1000 (1000 Mbps Gigabit
Ethernet), 10000 (10000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet), or auto (auto-sensing, which is the default). The auto
setting automatically detects and matches the line speed of the attached device.
Note that available settings for the interfaces speed command depend on the available line speeds of your
hardware interface. See “Valid Port Settings on OmniSwitch 6800 Series Switches” on page 1-5, “Valid
Port Settings on OmniSwitch 6850 Series Switches” on page 1-5, or “Valid Port Settings on OmniSwitch
9000 Series Switches” on page 1-6 for more information.
In order to set up a speed and duplex on a port, autonegotiation should be disabled.
-> interfaces 2 autoneg disable
To set the line speed on an entire switch, enter interfaces followed by the slot number and the desired
speed. For example, to set slot 2 to 100 Mbps, enter:
-> interfaces 2 speed 100
To set the line speed on a single port, enter interfaces followed by the slot number, a slash (/), the port
number, and the desired speed. For example, to set the line speed on slot 2 port 3 at 100 Mbps, enter:
-> interfaces 2/3 speed 100
To set the line speed on a range of ports, enter interfaces followed by the slot number, a slash (/), the first
port number, a hyphen (-), the last port number, and the desired speed. For example, to set the line speed
on ports 1 through 3 on slot 2 at 100 Mbps, enter:
-> interfaces 2/1-3 speed 100
