Interface numbering rule

6000 interfaces are numbered in three dimensions. The rules are as follows:

■The interfaces are numbered in the interface-type X/Y/Z format, in which, interface specifies the interface type (as serial, asynchronous, ethernet or ATM, etc.), X specifies the slot number, Y specifies the board number (or is fixed as 0 when there is no board), and Z specifies the interface sequence number.

■As shown in the above figure, different interfaces of an interface module share the same slot number X.

■For every interface, Y starts from 0, and Z indicates the interface sequence (from left to right) on the interface module.
