Configuring the Insight Interface for the SLX 9150/9250

  1. Enter global configuration mode.
    device# configure terminal
  2. In global configuration mode, specify a port-channel. You can create a new port-channel or use an existing unconfigured port-channel. The Insight Interface can only be configured on one port-channel
    device(config)# interface port-channel 50
    
  3. In interface subtype configuration mode, enter the insight enable command.
    device(config-Port-channel-50)# insight enable
    
  4. Set the port ip-address.
    device(config-Port-channel-50)# ip address 10.0.0.1/24
  5. Enable the interface.
    device(config-Port-channel-50)# no shutdown
    
  6. Use the show interface port-channel and the show port-channel commands to confirm the configuration, as in the following example.
    device# show interface port-channel 50
    Port-channel 50 is up, line protocol is up
    Insight mode is enabled
