Chapter 9 Configuring the Switch Interfaces
Using the Interface Command
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#
Step 2 Enter the interface global configuration command. Identify the interface type and the number of the
connector. In this example, Gigabit Ethernet interface 0/1 is selected:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet0/1
Switch(config-if)#
Note You do not need to add a space between the interface type and interface number. For example,
in the preceding line, you can specify either gigabitethernet 0/1, gigabitethernet0/1, gi 0/1, or
gi0/1.
Step 3 Follow each interface command with the interface configuration commands your particular interface
requires. The commands you enter define the protocols and applications that will run on the interface.
The commands are collected and applied to the interface when you enter another interface command or
enter end to return to privileged EXEC mode.
You can also configure a range of interfaces by using the interface range or interface range macro
global configuration commands. Interfaces configured in a range must be the same type and must be
configured with the same feature options.
Step 4 After you configure an interface, verify its status by using the show privileged EXEC commands listed
in the “Monitoring and Maintaining the Interfaces” section on page 9-16.
Enter the show interfaces privileged EXEC command to see a list of all interfaces on or configured for
the switch. A report is provided for each interface that the device supports or for the specified interface:
