7.2.3.2.5shutdown

Command: shutdown no shutdown

Function: Shuts down the network management port; the “no shutdown” command opens the port.

Command mode: Network management port configuration Mode

Default: Network management port is open by default.

Usage Guide: When network management port is shut down, no data frames are sent in the port, and the port status displayed when the user typed “show interface” command is “down”. Example: Enabling the network management interface.

Switch(Config)#interface ethernet 0 Switch(Config-Ethernet0)#no shutdown

7.2.3.2.6speed

Command: speed {auto force10 force100}

Function: Sets port speed

Parameters: auto for auto-negotiation of speed; force10 for forced 10Mbps; force100 for forced half 100Mbps.

Command mode: Network management port configuration Mode

Default: Auto-negotiation for speed is set by default.

Usage Guide: According to IEEE 802.3, the auto-negotiation for port speed and duplex are linked. If the port speed setting is auto-negotiation, the port duplex mode will also be set to auto-negotiation automatically; if the port speed changes from auto-negotiation to forced, the port duplex mode will also become forced full/half-duplex.

It is strongly recommended for users to set all port speed and duplex mode to auto-negotiation, this can minimize protocol-related connection problems. If forced speed/duplex mode needs to be set, the speed/duplex mode setting of both ends must be verified to be the same.

Example: Setting the network management port to forced 100Mbps. Switch(Config)#interface ethernet 0 Switch(Config-Ethernet0)#speed force100

7.2.4.1Introduction to Port Mirroring

Port mirroring refers to the duplication of data frames sent/received on a port to another port. The duplicated port is referred to as mirror source port and the duplicating port is referred to as
