Configuring LAN Interfaces
Configuring a Fiber Distributed Data Interface
EtherChannel even if the line protocol goes down. This can result in unpredictable behavior. The implementation of the Port Aggregation Protocol in a subsequent release of this feature will remove the dependency on keepalives.
See the “LAN Interface Configuration Examples” section for configuration examples.
You can monitor the status of the Fast EtherChannel interface by using the show interfaces
Configuring a Fiber Distributed Data Interface
The Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) is an
An FDDI network consists of two
The FDDI standard allows a maximum of 500 stations with a maximum distance between active stations of two kilometers when interconnecting them with multimode fiber or ten kilometers when interconnected via single mode fiber, both of which are supported by our FDDI interface controllers. The FDDI frame can contain a minimum of 17 bytes and a maximum of 4500 bytes. Our implementation of FDDI supports Station Management (SMT) Version 7.3 of the X3T9.5 FDDI specification, offering a single MAC
