Numbering user interfaces
User interfaces can be numbered by using absolute numbering or relative numbering.
Absolute numbering
Absolute numbering identifies a user interface or a group of different types of user interfaces. The specified
user interfaces are numbered from number 0 with a step of 1 and in the sequence of AUX, and VTY user
interfaces. Use display user-interface command without any parameters to view supported user interfaces
and their absolute numbers.
Relative numbering
Relative numbering allows you to specify a user interface or a group of user interfaces of a specific type. The
number format is “user interface type + number." The following rules of relative numbering apply:
• AUX user interfaces are numbered from 0 in the ascending order, with a step of 1.
• VTY user interfaces are numbered from 0 in the ascending order, with a step of 1.
