Verifying Fibre Channel Interfaces
This example shows how to configure the port channel member interfaces on the core switch in dedicated
mode:
switch(config)# interface fc1/4-6
switch(config-if)# shut
switch(config-if)# switchport mode F
switch(config-if)# switchport speed 4000
switch(config-if)# switchport rate-mode dedicated
switch(config-if)# switchport trunk mode on
switch(config-if)# channel-group 2
switch(config-if)# no shut
switch(config-if)# exit
This example shows how to create the port channel in dedicated mode on the NPV switch:
switch(config)# interface san-port-channel 2
switch(config-if)# switchport mode NP
switch(config-if)# no shut
switch(config-if)# exit
This example shows how to configure the port channel member interfaces on the NPV switch:
switch(config)# interface fc2/1-2
switch(config-if)# shut
switch(config-if)# switchport mode NP
switch(config-if)# switchport trunk mode on
switch(config-if)# channel-group 2
switch(config-if)# no shut
switch(config-if)# exit
Verifying Fibre Channel Interfaces
Verifying SFP Transmitter Types
The SPF transmitter type can be displayed for a physical Fibre Channel interface (but not for a virtual Fibre
Channel).
The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) hardware transmitters are identified by their acronyms when displayed
in the show interface brief command. If the related SFP has a Cisco-assigned extended ID, then the show
interface and show interface brief commands display the ID instead of the transmitter type. The show
interface transceiver command and the show interface fc slot/port transceiver command display both values
for Cisco supported SFPs.
Verifying Interface Information
The show interface command displays interface configurations. If no arguments are provided, this command
displays the information for all the configured interfaces in the switch.
You can also specify arguments (a range of interfaces or multiple, specified interfaces) to display interface
information. You can specify a range of interfaces by entering a command with the following example format:
interface fc2/1 - 4 , fc3/2 - 3
The following example shows how to display all interfaces:
switch# show interface
fc3/1 is up
...
fc3/3 is up
...
