Chapter 10 Configuring Interface Characteristics
Monitoring and Maintaining the Interfaces
When the shutdown interface configuration command is entered on an LRE interface, the LRE link is
shut down. To shut down the 10/100 Ethernet ports on CPE device, use the cpe shutdown [port port-id]
interface configuration command.
This example shows how to shut down a port:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface fastethernet0/5
Switch(config-if)# shutdown
Switch(config-if)#
*Sep 30 08:33:47: %LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface FastEthernet0/5, changed state to a
administratively down
This example shows how to re-enable a port:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface fastethernet0/5
Switch(config-if)# no shutdown
Switch(config-if)#
*Sep 30 08:36:00: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet0/5, changed state to up
To verify that an interface is disabled, enter the show interfaces privileged EXEC command. A disabled
interface appears as administratively down in the show interfaces command output.
