no problem, but can we have only these two entries: > - nic_mac_loopback: enable mac loopback mode per port > - nic_ports_status: print physical connection status per port nic_ports_status is print only (not configuration). nic_mac_loopback is to set a port to loopback mode and out of it. It's not really configuration but rather a mode change. If not, what's the alternative ? Thanks, Oded
