Command Modes Privileged.
Usage Guidelines You can shut down a module manually using the set module disable or the set module power down
commands.
After the module shuts down, you must reenable the module manually.
You must configure these two parameters before an automatic shutdown can occur:
•Frequency—Allows you to specify the threshold value for an automatic module shutdown. When
the number of resets reaches the value that is assigned to this option, the Ethernet module can
perform an automatic shutdown.
•Period—Allows you to specify the time period in which the number of resets must occur (as
configured with the frequency keyword). The period is measured from one these conditions:
–
When the switch first comes up
–
When the supervisor engine performs a switchover
–
When the Ethernet module is powered up
–
When the autoshut counters are cleared on the module
Note If you set the period argument to 0, the module shuts down when it cross es the fr equen cy threshol d,
regardless of the period of time it took to reach that threshold.
frequency num Sets the number of times that the module can reset itself before shutting
down; valid values are from 1 to 255 times.
period minutes Sets the time period in which the number of resets must occur; valid values
are from 0 to 255 minutes. See the “Usage Guidelines” section for more
information.
