This section documents the GigabitEthernet configuration commands.
The GE ports are RJ-45 ports supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps or 10/100/1000/2500/5000 Mbps.
The UP ports supports either RJ-45 or fiber. The UP port is the preferred means to connect to the backbone because it has a non-blocking 1gbps connection unlike the GE ports.
The following ports are available on access points:
The following example uses the config-profile-nx9500-6C8809 instance to configure a GigabitEthernet interface:
nx9500-6C8809(config-profile-testNX9000-if-ge2)#?
Interface configuration commands:
captive-portal-enforcement Enable captive-portal enforcement on this port

channel-group Channel group commands
description Interface specific description
dot1x 802.1X
duplex Set duplex to interface
ip Internet Protocol (IP)
ipv6 Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6)
lacp LACP commands

lldp Link Local Discovery Protocol
mac-auth Enable mac-auth for this port
no Negate a command or set its defaults

speed Configure speed
switchport Set switching mode characteristics
use Set setting to use
clrscr Clears the display screen
commit Commit all changes made in this session
do Run commands from Exec mode
end End current mode and change to EXEC mode
exit End current mode and down to previous mode
help Description of the interactive help system
revert Revert changes
