Chapter 2 Configuring Basic Interface Parameters
Configuring the Basic Interface Parameters
This example shows how to configure the dedicated mode for Ethernet port 4/17 in the group that
includes ports 4/17, 4/19, 4/21, and 4/23:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 4/17, ethernet 4/19, ethernet 4/21, ethernet 4/23
switch(config-if)# shutdown
switch(config-if)# interface ethernet 4/17
switch(config-if)# rate-mode dedicated
switch(config-if)# no shutdown
switch(config-if)#
Sharing the Bandwidth Among a Port Group
You can share 10 Gb of bandwidth among a group of ports (four ports) on a 32-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet
module. To share the bandwidth, you must bring the dedicated port administratively down, specify the
ports that are to share the bandwidth, change the rate mode to shared, and then bring the ports
administratively up.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
All ports in the same group must belong to the same VDC.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. configure terminal
2. interface ethernet slot/port
Step 4
interface ethernet slot/port
Example:
switch(config)# interface ethernet 3/1
switch(config)#
Specifies the first Ethernet interface in a
group of interfaces.
Step 5
rate-mode dedicated
Example:
switch(config-if)# rate-mode dedicated
switch(config-if)#
Dedicates the full bandwidth of 10 Gb to
one port. When you dedicate the
bandwidth, all subsequent commands for
the port are for dedicated mode.
Step 6
no shutdown
Example:
switch(config-if)# no shutdown
Brings the port administratively up.
Step 7
show interface ethernet slot/port capabilities
Example:
switch(config)# show interface ethernet 3/1
Displays the interface information
including the current rate mode.
Step 8
exit
Example:
switch(config-if)# exit
switch(config)#
Exits the interface mode.
Step 9
copy running-config startup-config
Example:
switch(config)# copy running-config startup-config
(Optional) Copies the running
configuration to the startup configuration.
