Basic Fast Ethernet and POS Interface Configuration
ML-Series cards support Fast Ethernet and POS interfaces. This section provides some examples of
configurations for all interface types.
To configure an IP address or bridge-group number on a Fast Ethernet or POS interface, perf orm the
following procedure, beginning in global configuration mode:

Configuring the Fast Ethernet Interfaces

To configure the IP address or bridge-group number, autonegotiation, and flow control on a Fast Ethernet
interface, perform the following procedure, beginning in global c onfiguration mode:
Command Purpose
Step 1 ML_Series(config)# interface
type number
Activates interface configuration mode to
configure either the Fast Ethernet interface or the
POS interface.
Step 2 ML_Series(config-if)# {ip address
ip-address subnet-mask
|
bridge-group
bridge-group-number
}
Sets the IP address and IP subnet mask to be
assigned to the interface.
or
Assigns a network interface to a bridge group.
Step 3 ML_Series(config-if)# no shutdown Enables the interface by preventing it from
shutting down.
Step 4 ML_Series(config)# end Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 5 ML_Series# copy running-config
startup-config
(Optional) Saves configuration changes to flash
database.
Command Purpose
Step 1 ML_Series(config)# interface fastethernet
number
Activates interface configuration mode to
configure the Fast Ethernet interface.
Step 2 ML_Series(config-if)# {ip address
ip-address subnet-mask
| bridge-group
bridge-group-number
}
Sets the IP address and IP subnet mask to be
assigned to the interface.
or
Assigns a network interface to a bridge group.
Step 3 ML_Series(config-if)# [no] speed {10 | 100
| auto}
Configures the transmission speed for 10 or
100 Mbps. If you set the speed or duplex for auto ,
you enable autonegotiation on the system—the
ML-Series card matches the speed and duplex
mode of the partner node.
