Disabling and Re-enabling a Physical Interface By default, all port interfaces on an Aggregator are operationally enabled (no shutdown) to send and receive Layer 2 traffic. You can reconfigure a physical interface to shut it down by entering the shutdown command. To re-enable the interface, enter the no shutdown command. Step Command Syntax 1 interface interface 2 shutdown Command Mode Purpose CONFIGURATION INTERFACE Enter the keyword interface followed by the type of interface and slot/port information: • For a 10GbE interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet followed by the slot/port numbers; for example, interface tengigabitethernet 0/56. • For the management interface on a stack-unit, enter the keyword ManagementEthernet followed by the slot/port numbers; for example, interface managementethernet 0/33. Enter the shutdown command to disable the interface. To confirm that the interface is enabled, use the show config command in INTERFACE mode. To leave INTERFACE mode, use the exit command or end command. You cannot delete a physical interface. The management IP address on the D-fabric provides a dedicated management access to the system. The switch interfaces support Layer 2 and Layer 3 traffic over the 100/1000/10000, 10-Gigabit, and 40-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. These interfaces can also become part of virtual interfaces such as virtual local area networks (VLANs) or port channels. For more information about VLANs, refer to VLANs and Port Tagging. For more information about port channels, refer to Port Channel Interfaces. FTOS Behavior: The Aggregator uses a single MAC address for all physical interfaces. Interfaces | 121
