How to change the IP space or broadcast domain on a port
Applies to
ONTAP 9
Description
By default, the network ports on the node have the following roles:
::> network port show
Auto-Negot Duplex Speed (Mbps)
Node Port Role Link MTU Admin/Oper Admin/Oper Admin/Oper
----------- ------ -------- ----- ------- ----------- ----------- ------------
cluster1-01
e0a cluster up 9000 true/true full/full 1000/1000
e0b cluster up 9000 true/true full/full 1000/1000
e0c data up 1500 true/true full/full 1000/1000
e0d data up 1500 true/true full/full 1000/1000
However, one of the nodes do not show the roles correctly:
::> net port show -node cluster1-03
(network port show)
Speed (Mbps)
Node Port IPspace Broadcast Domain Link MTU Admin/Oper
------------ ------ -------- ---------------- ----- ------ ------------
cluster1-03
e0a Cluster Cluster up 9000 auto/10000
e0b Default Default up 1500 auto/10000
e0c Cluster Cluster up 9000 auto/10000
e0d Default Default up 1500 auto/10000
The following error appears when attempting to change the IPspace and broadcast domain of port e0b:
::> net port modify -node cluster1-03 -port e0b -ipspace Cluster
(network port modify)
Error: command failed: Cannot directly modify the IPspace on this port; instead add it to the appropriate broadcast domain in the desired IPspace.
