Command Usage Basics Chapter 3 Getting Started with the CLI Specifying Ports in Interface Configuration Mode To configure a port, you need to specify the interface type, slot, and switch-port number with the interface configuration command. For example, to configure port 4 on a switch, you enter: switch(config)#interface fa 0/4 To configure port 4 on a 10/100 module in the first module slot on the switch, you enter: switch(config)#interface fa 1/4 • Interface type-Each switch in the Catalyst 2900 series XL and Catalyst 3500 series XL platform supports different types of interfaces. To display a complete list of the interface types supported on your switch, enter the interface ? command from the global configuration mode. This example shows what the interface ? command displays on a Catalyst 2900 LRE XL switch: lreswitch(config)#interface ? FastEthernet FastEthernet IEEE 802.3 LongReachEthernet Ethernet over VDSL Multilink Multilink-group interface Port-channel Ethernet Channel of interfaces VLAN Switch VLAN Virtual Interface Virtual-TokenRing Virtual TokenRing Note The multilink, port-channel, and virtual-Token Ring interface types are not supported on the Catalyst 2900 XL and Catalyst 3500 XL switches. • Slot number-The slot number on the switch. On the modular Catalyst 2900 XL switches, the slot number is 1 or 2. On non-modular Catalyst 2900 XL and Catalyst 3500 XL switches, the slot number is 0. • Port number-The number of the physical port on the switch. Refer to your switch for the port numbers. Abbreviating Commands You only have to enter enough characters for the switch to recognize the command as unique. This example shows how to enter the show configuration command: Switch# show conf Catalyst 2900 Series XL and Catalyst 3500 Series XL Software Configuration Guide 3-4 78-6511-08
