Configuring Ethernet Interfaces
Procedure
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
This example shows how to enable the debounce timer and set the debounce time to 1000 milliseconds for
an Ethernet interface:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/4
switch(config-if)# link debounce time 1000
This example shows how to disable the debounce timer for an Ethernet interface:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/4
switch(config-if)# link debounce time 0
This command can only be applied to a physical Ethernet interface.
