Chapter 59 Configuring Router Interfaces
Basic Interface Settings on Cisco IOS Routers
Note Frame relay must be configured on the parent interface.
Note IETF Frame Relay encapsulation provides interoperability between a Cisco IOS router and
equipment from other vendors. To configure Cisco Frame Relay encapsulation, use CLI
commands or FlexConfigs.
Step 11 (Optional) Enter a description of up to 1024 characters for the interface.
Step 12 Click OK to save the interface/subinterface definition and close the dialog box. The new interface is
displayed on the Router Interfaces page. Subinterfaces are displayed beneath the parent interface.
Deleting a Cisco IOS Router Interface
Although you can delete the definition of a virtual interface at any time, use this option with great care.
If the interface is included in any policy definitions that exist for this router, deleting the interface causes
these policy definitions to fail when they are deployed to the device.
Note Deleting the basic interface definition does not delete any advanced settings that are configured under
Interface > Settings > Advanced Settings. You must delete these advanced settings separately. If you
fail to do so, deployment fails.
Note Deleting the definition of a physical interface from the Router Interfaces page does not remove the
interface from the device. If you perform this operation by mistake, you can perform rediscovery to
restore the definition to Security Manager. For more information, see Discovering Policies on Devices
Already in Security Manager, page 5-15.
