Port Link-Mode Interface-List - HP 3600 v2 Series Command Reference Manual

Use undo port link-mode to restore the default.
By default, Ethernet interfaces operate in Layer 2 mode.
To meet networking requirements, you can change the link mode of a port, so it can operate as a Layer
2 Ethernet interface (in bridge mode) or Layer 3 Ethernet interface (in route mode).
When you change the link mode of an Ethernet interface, all the settings of the Ethernet interface are
restored to their defaults under the new link mode.
