Checking Module Status

The Catalyst enterprise LAN switches are multimodule systems. You can see what modules are installed,
as well as the MAC address ranges and version numbers for each module, by using the show module
command. You can use the [mod_num] arguement to specify a particular module number to see detailed
information on that module.
The Catalyst 4912G, 2948G, and 2980G switches are fixed-configuration switches, but are logically
modular. You must apply configuration commands to the appropriate module. For example, on a
Catalyst 2948G series switch, the 24 Fast Ethernet ports belong logically to module 2.
