Prohibit configurations are always symmetrically applied—if you prohibit Port 0 from talking to port 15,
port 15 is automatically prohibited from talking to port 0.
If an interface is already configured in E or TE mode and you try to prohibit that port, your prohibit
Note
configuration is rejected. Similarly, if a port is not up and you prohibit that port, the port is not allowed
to come up in E mode nor in TE mode.

switch(config-ficon-portaddr)#
Step 4
switch(config-ficon-portaddr)# prohibit portaddress 3-5
switch(config-ficon-portaddr)# no prohibit portaddress 5
