Port > General
Use the FC_MR Port > General subtab to provision the port parameters.
 
Port
The card port number.
Port Name
Use an IP address or another name in the Port Name field. The preferred character limit for this field is 32; however, it is possible to exceed this limit when using long node names.
Admin State
The port administrative state. Choose an administrative state from the drop-down list and click Apply to change the port service state unless network conditions prevent the change. Administrative states include:
unlocked: Puts the port in service. The port service state changes to unlocked-enabled.
unlocked,automaticinservice: The entity is delayed before transitioning to the unlocked-enabled service state. The transition to unlocked-enabled state depends on correction of conditions, or on a soak timer. Alarm reporting is suppressed, but traffic is carried. Raised fault conditions, whether or not their alarms are reported, can be retrieved on the CTC Conditions tab or by using the TL1 RTRV-COND command.
locked,disabled: Removes the port from service and disables it. The port service state changes to locked-enabled,disabled.
locked,maintenance: Removes the port from service for maintenance. The port service state changes to locked-enabled,maintenance.
Note
CTC will not allow you to change a port service state from unlocked-enabled to locked-enabled,disabled. You must first change a port to the locked-enabled,maintenance service state before putting it in the locked-enabled,disabled service state.
Service State
An autonomously generated state that gives the overall condition of the port. Service states appear in the format: AdministrativeState-OperationalState, StatusAttribute. For additional state information, see States.
Link Rate
The actual rate of the port.
Max GBIC Rate
The maximum GBIC rate. If the GBIC does not have this information in the EEPROM, “Contact GBIC vendor” appears.
Media Type
Sets the proper payload value for the transparent GFP (GFP-T) frames. Possible values are Fibre Channel - 1 Gbps, Fibre Channel - 2 Gbps, FICON 1 Gbps, FICON 2 Gbps, and Unknown.
Link Recovery
Enables or disables link recovery if a local port is inoperable. If enabled, a link reset occurs when there is a loss of transport from a cross-connect switch, protection switch, or an upgrade.
AINS Soak
Automatic in-service soak. The amount of time left before the traffic/termination transitions to unlocked state.
Apply
Applies changes made to the fields in the tab.
Reset
Cancels any changes to the tab and returns the fields to their last-saved settings.
Help
Displays context-sensitive help.
