ADTRAN 1000R Series interface <interface> [<slot/port>

Command Reference Guide Global Configuration Mode Command Set

interface <interface> [<slot/port> | <interface id>] [point-to-point]

Use the interface command to activate the interface command set for the specified physical or virtual

interface. Use the no form of this command to delete a configured interface. To activate the interface, enter

the no shutdown command from within the specific interface command set. For example,

(config-ppp 7)#no shutdown.

Syntax Description

<interface> Identifies the physical port type of the installed Network Interface Module (NIM),

Dial-Backup Interface Module (DIM), or Ethernet port. Type interface ? for a

complete list of valid interfaces.

<slot/port> Specifies an interface based on its physical location (slot and port). For example,

if you have a T1/DSX-1 NIM installed in Slot 1 of an AOS

product:

•The WAN-T1 port would be specified in the CLI as t1 1/1.

•The DSX-1 port would be specified as t1 1/ 2.

• If (for example) a BRI DIM backup module is also inst alled, then the DBU port

of the NIM card would be specified as bri 1/3.

• If you are specifying a port that is built into the base unit (e.g., the Ethernet

port), the slot number is 0. For example, the Ethernet (LAN) port would be

specified as eth 0/1.

<interface id> Specifies the numerical interface ID using a numerical string. Valid range is 1 to

1024. To specify a sub-interface the following syntax applies:

interface atm <interface id>.<sub -interface id>. Valid range is 1 to 255.

point-to-point Optional. Identifies the interface as a point-to-point link (versus multilink). Valid

only on interfaces that support point-to-point (e.g., ATM and Frame Relay).

default, all created ATM and Frame Relay interfaces are point-to-point.

Default Values
