CREATE CARD
Syntax
CREATE CARD=slot card_type [{[PREFLOAD=filename] [ADMIN-
STATE={UP|DOWN}]| PROFILE=name}]
Description Creates software provisioning for a card in a specific slot. A CARD is a field replaceable
module that occupies a slot. The ports on the specified card are automatically provi-
sioned when the card is provisioned.
Note: Control and Fan Modules are automatically provisioned during system startup and are not affected by
the CREATE CARD command.
At minimum, when creating a card, the user must specify the slot number and the card
type. If no other parameters are entered, the card and its ports are provisioned using
default values. If the card auto provisioning profile is specified, then all card attributes are
set to the values in the card auto provisioning profile and all port attributes are set to the
values in the port auto provisioning profile. PROFILE specifies the name of the profile
used to provision the card. The contents of a profile can be displayed (SHOW PROFILE)
and changed (SET PROFILE).
Options The following table gives the range of values for each option that can be specified with
this command and a default value (if applicable).
Example CREATE Card=2 GE24POE
Option Description Default Value
Card The slot for the card. Refer to 1.16.1 for which cards
can be provisioned in which slots.
card_type The type of card. For the SBx3112, the allowed card
types are GE24POE, GE24SFP, and XE4.
N/A
PREFLOAD Specifies the name of the preferred software load file for
the card. This file must reside on the CFC flash file sys-
tem, and is loaded to the flash memory on the card (if
it's not already there) when the card is enabled or reset.
The command is rejected if the preferred software load
specified is not compatible with the specified card.
ADMIN-
STATE
The initial administrative state for the card. The adminis-
trative state reflects the user's intent on having the card
available for service (ready to process data).
PROFILE A profile contains a set of pre-defined provisioning
attributes. The contents of a profile can be displayed
(SHOW PROFILE) and changed (SET PROFILE).
