Command

Example

 

 

 

 

 

Cisco 7120

interface, followed by the type

Router(config)#

interface serial 3/0

 

(serial) and port adapter

 

 

 

number/interface port number

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cisco 7140

interface, followed by the type

Router(config)#

interface serial 4/0

 

(serial) and port adapter

 

 

 

number/interface port number

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 4 Enter the shutdown command as follows:

Router(config-if)# shutdown

Step 5 To shut down additional interfaces, enter the slot/port address (or slot/port address/interface port for a VIP2) of each additional interface followed by the shutdown command. When you have entered all the interfaces to be shut down, press Ctrl-Z(hold down the Control key while you press Z) or enter end to exit configuration mode and return to the EXEC command interpreter prompt.

The example that follows is for the Cisco 7100 series, Cisco 7200 series, or

Cisco uBR7200 series routers:

Router(config-if)#interface serial 1/0

Router(config-if)# shutdown

Router(config-if)#interface serial 1/1

Router(config-if)# shutdown

Ctrl-Z

Router#

The example that follows is for a VIP2:

Router(config-if)#interface serial 1/1/0

Router(config-if)# shutdown

Router(config-if)#interface serial 1/1/1

Router(config-if)# shutdown

Ctrl-Z

Router#

The example that follows is for a Catalyst RSM/VIP2:

Router(config-if)#interface serial 1/0

Router(config-if)# shutdown

Router(config-if)#interface serial 1/1

Router(config-if)# shutdown

Ctrl-Z

Router#

Step 6 Write the new configuration to memory as follows:

Router# copy running-config startup-config

[OK]

Router#

The system displays an OK message when the configuration has been stored.

Step 7 Verify that new interfaces are now in the correct state (shutdown). To do so on the Cisco 7100 series, Cisco 7200 series, or Cisco uBR7200 series routers, use the show interfaces serial slot/port command to display the specific interface, or use the show interfaces command, without variables, to display the status of all interfaces in the system.
