Configuring Interfaces

Shutting Down an Interface

To shut down an interface, use the admin-shutdownor shut command.

Caution Shutting down an interface terminates all connections to the interface.

For example:

•To shut down interface e3 on the CSS 11501 with the admin-shutdowncommand, enter:

(config-if[e3])# admin-shutdown

•To shut down interface e3 on the CSS 11501 with the shut command, enter:

(config-if[e3])# shut

When you use the shut command, the CSS changes the shut command to the admin-shutdowncommand in the running configuration.

Note If you configure the redundancy-phycommand on an interface and then disable the interface using the admin-shutdowncommand, the master CSS fails over to the backup CSS. To prevent the CSS from failing over when you administratively disable the interface, remove the redundancy-phycommand by entering no redundancy-phybefore you enter the admin-shutdowncommand on that interface.

Shutting Down All Interfaces

To shut down all interfaces simultaneously, use the admin-shutdowncommand. This command is only available in the SuperUser mode. The admin-shutdowncommand provides a quick way to shut down all physical devices in the CSS except the console and Ethernet management ports.

Caution Shutting down an interface terminates all connections to the interface.
