3. Determine whether to set up FC Router port cost operations and/or ISL or EX-Port trunking.
These options include FC Router port cost operations and setting up either ISL or EX_Port trunking. For
information about using FCR Router Port Cost operations, see ”FC Router port cost configuration” on
page 383 and for information on trunking setup, see ”Configuring EX_Port frame trunking” on
page 385.

physically attach ISLs from the Fibre Channel Router to the edge fabric.
switch:admin> portenable 7/10
5. Enter the portCfgShow command to view ports that are persistently disabled.
