The transport_protocol set command

The transport_protocol set command sets or modifies the transport protocol on the storage system.

Syntax for this command is:

sdcli transport_protocol set [-m MachineName] -f StorageSystem | -default -type HTTP| HTTPS |RPC [ -port port] [ -user UserName] [-pwd password]

-f StorageSystem specifies the storage system name or IP address.

-default default protocol.

-type specifies the protocol type that will be used. Protocol type is either HTTP, HTTPS, or RPC.

-port port specifies the port number the protocol will use. The default port for HTTPS is 443. The default port for HTTP is 80.

-user UserName specifies the user with permission on the storage system. A username is required if protocol the type is HTTP/HTTPS.

-pwd password is the password for the user. A password is required if the protocol type is HTTP/HTTPS. You are prompted for a password if it is not specified.

Note:

When you use Data ONTAP 8.1 Cluster-Mode or later with SnapDrive 6.4 for Windows, you must specify the Vserver data LIF when you set the transport protocol. Ensure that the management firewall policy, data role, and protocols are set to none in the Vserver data LIF.
You must add Cserver credentials in the transport protocol setting to enable a cluster-wide user to query any license.

Example

C:\sdcli transport_protocol set -f atlas-1 -type HTTPS -user adminType password for the user: New transport protocol has been set.

The preceding example sets the transport protocol to HTTPS on the storage system called atlas-1 using the user name "admin." A password is required but was not specified, so the command prompts the user to enter a password.
