Adding an External Filer
Setting the CIFS Port (optional)
6-6 CLI Storage-Management Guide
Setting the CIFS Port (optional)
By default, the ARX sends its CIFS messages to port 445 or 139 at the external filer.
Port 445 supports raw CIFS communication over TCP, port 139 supports CIFS
through NetBIOS; the ARX tries port 445 first and uses port 139 as a fall-back. For
most (if not all) CIFS configurations, this should suffice. For filers that do not listen at
either of these well-known ports, use the
cifs-port command to set the port:
cifs-port port
where port is a TCP/UDP port number from 1-65535. Numbers from 0-1023 are
reserved for “well-known” TCP/UDP ports.
For example, the following command sequence sets the CIFS port to 7231 for the filer
named “fs1:”
bstnA6k(gbl)# external-filer fs1
bstnA6k(gbl-ext-filer[fs1])# cifs-port 7231
bstnA6k(gbl-ext-filer[fs1])# ...
Refer to RFCs 1001 and 1002 for NetBIOS specifications.
Reverting to the CIFS-Port Default
Use no cifs-port to revert back to the default CIFS port, 445 (or 139):
no cifs-port
For example, the following command sequence stops using a pre-set CIFS port for the
filer named “fs1:”
bstnA6k(gbl)# external-filer fs1
bstnA6k(gbl-ext-filer[fs1])# no cifs-port
bstnA6k(gbl-ext-filer[fs1])# ...
Listing External Filers
Use the show external-filer command to get a list of all external filers:
show external-filer
