Usage Use this command to modify a vPort configuration on the switch. vPorts are mirrored across the fabric so that every switch knows about all the L2 entries on the fabric. This is useful for troubleshooting connections across the fabric.
Examples To modify a vPort with the MAC address of 06:60:00:02:10:38, IP address of 192.168.11.11, and change the VLAN to 107, use the following syntax:
CLI (network-admin@switch) > vport-modify mac 06:60:00:02:10:38 vlan 107 ip 192.168.11.11
