The following example reverts to the factory defaults:
switch(config-profile)# no tcp max-bandwidth-kbps 900 min-available-bandwidth-kbps 300

traceroute
To print the route an IP packet takes to a network host, use the traceroute command in EXEC mode.
traceroute {hostname | ip-address}
Syntax Description
host name
|
Specifies a host name. Maximum length is 64 characters.
|
ip-address
|
Specifies an IP address.
|
Defaults
None.
Command Modes
EXEC mode.
Command History
This command was introduced in Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 1.0(2).
Usage Guidelines
This command traces the route an IP packet follows to an internet host by launching UDP probe packets with a small TTL (time to live) then listening for an ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) "time exceeded" reply from a gateway.
Note Probes start with a TTL of one and increase by one until encountering an ICMP "port unreachable." This means that the host was accessed or a maximum flag was hit. A line is printed showing the TTL, address of the gateway and round trip time of each probe. If the probe answers come from different gateways, the address of each responding system is printed.
Examples
The following example prints the route IP packets take to the network host www.cisco.com.
switch# traceroute www.cisco.com
traceroute to www.cisco.com (171.71.181.19), 30 hops max, 38 byte packets

trunk protocol enable
To configure the trunking protocol, use the trunk protocol enable command in configuration mode. To disable this feature, use the no form of the command.
trunk protocol enable
no trunk protocol enable
Syntax Description
This command has no other arguments or keywords.
Defaults
Enabled.
Command Modes
Configuration mode.
Command History
This command was introduced in Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 1.0(2).
Usage Guidelines
If the trunking protocol is disabled on a switch, no port on that switch can apply new trunk configurations. Existing trunk configurations are not affected—the TE port continues to function in trunking mode, but only supports traffic in VSANs that it negotiated previously (when the trunking protocol was enabled). Also, other switches that are directly connected to this switch are similarly affected on the connected interfaces. In some cases, you may need to merge traffic from different port VSANs across a non-trunking ISL. If so, you need to disable the trunking protocol.
Examples
The following example shows how to disable the trunk protocol feature.
switch(config)# no trunk protocol enable
The following example shows how to enable the trunk protocol feature.
switch(config)# trunk protocol enable
