What should you do to change the data protocol of a LIF?
To change the data protocols associated with a Logical Interface (LIF), you must delete the LIF and recreate it. Modifying the data protocol directly is not supported; hence, recreating the LIF is the only way to apply the desired protocol changes.
I think A https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap/networking/modify_a_lif.html You cannot modify the data protocols used by an FC LIF. However, you can modify the services assigned to a service policy or change the service policy assigned to an IP LIF. To modify the data protocols used by a FC LIF, you must delete and re-create the LIF. To make service policy changes to an IP LIF, there is a brief outage while the updates occur.
