interface ethernet

Configures an Ethernet interface

Syntax

interface ethernet slot/port

no interface ethernet

Command Default

No Ethernet interface is configured.

Parameters

slot/port: Specifies a slot and port.

Modes

Global configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

If the breakout mode command has been configured on the port, the breakout ports of the Ethernet interface appear after the slot and port as breakout ports 1 through 4. For example, the breakout interfaces of connector 0/25 have the following naming convention:

interface ethernet 0/25:1
interface ethernet 0/25:2
interface ethernet 0/25:3
interface ethernet 0/25:4

Use the no form of the command to reset the port on the 36X100G LC to a 40G port.

To configure Redundant Management, configure a physical port on the device (for example, 0/15) as a standby management port.

Examples

The following example configures breakout ports of Ethernet interface 0/1:

interface ethernet 0/1:1
interface ethernet 0/1:2
interface ethernet 0/1:3
interface ethernet 0/1:4

The following example configures port 0/15 as the redundant management port:

device(config)# interface ethernet 0/15
device(conf-if-eth-0/15)# redundant-management enable
