CLI (Command Line Interface)

Interface Commands

These commands are used to display or set communication parameters for an Ethernet port, aggregated link, or VLAN.

Interface Commands

Command

Function

 

 

interface

Syntax:

This command configures

interface interface

an interface type and enter

no interface port-channel channel-id

• interface

interface configuration

ethernet unit/port

mode.

Use the no form to remove a

unit - Stack unit. (Range: 1-8)

trunk.

port - Port number. (Range: 1-26)

 

port-channel channel-id (Range: 1-4)

 

• vlan vlan-id (Range: 1-4094)

 

Default Setting: None

 

Command Mode: Global Configuration

 

Example: To specify port 24, enter the following command:

 

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/24

 

Console(config-if)#

 

 

description

Syntax:

This command adds a

description string

description to an interface.

no description

• string - Comment or a description to help you remember what is attached to

Use the no form to remove

this interface. (Range: 1-64 characters)

the description.

Default Setting: None

 

 

Command Mode: Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)

 

Example: The following example adds a description to port 24:

 

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/24

 

Console(config-if)#description RD-SW#3

 

Console(config-if)#

 

 

speed-duplex

Syntax:

This command configures

speed-duplex {1000full 100full 100half 10full 10half}

the speed and duplex mode

no speed-duplex

• 1000full - Forces 1000 Mbps full-duplex operation

of a given interface when

• 100full - Forces 100 Mbps full-duplex operation

autonegotiation is disabled.

Use the no form to restore

• 100half - Forces 100 Mbps half-duplex operation

the default.

• 10full - Forces 10 Mbps full-duplex operation

 

• 10half - Forces 10 Mbps half-duplex operation

 

Default Setting: Auto-negotiation is enabled by default. When auto-

 

negotiation is disabled, the default speed-duplex setting is 100half for

 

100BASE-TX ports and 1000full for Gigabit Ethernet ports.

 

Command Mode: Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)

 

Command Usage: To force operation to the speed and duplex mode specified

 

in a speed-duplex command, use the no negotiation command to disable auto-

 

negotiation on the selected interface.

 

When using the negotiation command to enable auto-negotiation, the optimal

 

settings will be determined by the capabilities command. To set the speed/

 

duplex mode under auto-negotiation, the required mode must be specified in the

 

capabilities list for an interface.

 

Example: The following example configures port 5 to 100 Mbps, half-duplex

 

operation:

 

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5

 

Console(config-if)#speed-duplex 100half

 

Console(config-if)#no negotiation

 

Console(config-if)#

NXA-ENET24 specifications

The AMX NXA-ENET24 is a versatile and powerful networked control interface designed to meet the growing demands of modern AV systems. This network switch offers an exceptional combination of reliability, performance, and scalability, making it an ideal choice for professional environments such as conference rooms, educational facilities, and control rooms.

One of the key features of the NXA-ENET24 is its 24-port configuration, allowing for extensive connectivity options. Each port supports 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds, ensuring that high bandwidth applications are handled with ease. Additionally, the switch incorporates advanced auto-negotiation technology, which automatically configures the optimal speed and duplex mode for connected devices. This ensures seamless connectivity and minimizes the risk of network disruptions.

The NXA-ENET24 is designed with advanced management capabilities, including support for VLANs, which helps to segment network traffic for enhanced security and performance. Network administrators can easily create virtual local area networks to optimize traffic flow and reduce congestion. This feature is particularly beneficial in environments where multiple AV systems operate concurrently.

Another significant characteristic of the NXA-ENET24 is its support for Power over Ethernet, or PoE. This feature enables the switch to deliver electrical power alongside data through the network cables. As a result, devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points can be powered directly from the switch, simplifying deployment and reducing the need for additional power sources.

Monitoring and management of the switch are made easier through a user-friendly interface. The NXA-ENET24 supports SNMP for network management, allowing users to monitor performance metrics, configure settings, and receive alerts in case of issues. This level of oversight is crucial for maintaining the stability of AV systems in mission-critical applications.

Durability is another hallmark of the NXA-ENET24 design. The switch features a robust chassis that is engineered to withstand the rigors of professional use. With cooling mechanisms in place and a fanless design, the NXA-ENET24 operates quietly and efficiently, making it suitable for environments where noise is a concern.

In conclusion, the AMX NXA-ENET24 is a powerful, reliable, and feature-rich network switch that effectively supports modern AV applications. With its extensive connectivity options, advanced management capabilities, PoE support, and durable design, it is an excellent choice for integrators and organizations looking to optimize their network infrastructure.
