Port configuration

Use the port configuration commands to configure settings for individual switch ports.

NOTE: Port 19 is reserved for switch management.

The following table describes the Port Configuration commands. The following sections provide more detailed information and commands.

Table 76 Port Configuration commands

Description

Enter Interface Port configuration mode for the selected port.

Command mode: Global configuration

Sets the default VLAN number which will be used to forward frames which are not VLAN tagged. The default number is 1.

NOTE: VLAN 4095 is reserved for switch management.

Command mode: Interface port

name {<1-64 characters>}

Sets a name for the port (maximum 64 characters). The assigned port

 

name displays next to the port number on some information and statistics

 

screens.

 

Command mode: Interface port

[no] rmon

Enables or disables Remote Monitoring for the port. RMON must be

 

enabled for any RMON configurations to function.

 

Command mode: Interface port

[no] tagging

Disables or enables VLAN tagging for this port. It is disabled by default.

 

Command mode: Interface port

[no] tag-pvid

Disables or enables VLAN tag persistence. When disabled, the VLAN tag is

 

removed from packets whose VLAN tag matches the port PVID. The default

 

value is enabled.

 

Command mode: Interface port

no shutdown

Enables the port.

 

Command mode: Interface port

shutdown

Disables the port. To temporarily disable a port without changing its

 

configuration attributes, see the “Temporarily disabling a port” section later

 

in this chapter.

 

Command mode: Interface port

show interface

Displays current port parameters.

gigabitethernet {<port

Command mode: All

number>}

 

Temporarily disabling a port

To temporarily disable a port without changing its stored configuration attributes, enter the following command at any prompt:

Switch# interface gigabitethernet <port number> shutdown

Because this configuration sets a temporary state for the port, you do not need to perform a save operation. The port state reverts to its original configuration when the switch is reloaded.

N8406-022 specifications

The NEC N8406-022 is a robust and versatile networking device designed primarily for organizations requiring high-performance connectivity solutions. As part of NEC's extensive portfolio of networking equipment, the N8406-022 is engineered to address the demands of modern enterprise environments, ensuring seamless communication and data processing capabilities.

One of the key features of the N8406-022 is its multi-layer switching functionality. This device supports Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching, allowing for efficient data routing and reducing latency within local area networks (LANs). This capability is particularly beneficial for businesses that rely on real-time data access and transfer, such as those in financial services, media, and telecommunications.

The N8406-022 is equipped with advanced Quality of Service (QoS) features that help prioritize critical network traffic. This means that voice and video data packets can be given precedence over less time-sensitive information, ensuring that essential communication remains clear and uninterrupted. This is crucial for organizations leveraging VoIP and video conferencing solutions.

In terms of connectivity, the NEC N8406-022 offers a variety of ports, including multiple Gigabit Ethernet ports, which facilitate high-speed data transfer and enable seamless integration into existing network infrastructures. The device may also include 10 Gigabit SFP+ ports, providing the flexibility for high-capacity uplinks to support bandwidth-intensive applications and storage solutions.

Security is another focal point of the NEC N8406-022, with integrated features such as VLAN support, access control lists (ACLs), and port security measures. These capabilities protect sensitive data from unauthorized access and ensure that only legitimate users and devices can connect to the network.

Moreover, the N8406-022 often incorporates advanced energy-efficient technologies that minimize power consumption without compromising performance. This not only contributes to operational cost savings but also supports organizations in their sustainability efforts.

With its combination of performance, security, and energy efficiency, the NEC N8406-022 stands out as a reliable networking solution suitable for a wide range of enterprises looking to enhance their connectivity and operational efficiency. Whether deployed in data centers or as part of a corporate network, this device is built to meet the evolving demands of today’s digital landscape.
