For example, the port name gi 3/2 refers to a port on the Gigabit Ethernet
interface module located in slot 3, port 2.
You can build a configuration for a module that is not yet installed. For
example, although slot 2 is empty, you can configure an interface gi 2/1 and
add an IP address to it, and then save the configuration for later use. Similarly,
a 10 gigabit interface (te 2/1) could be configured for the empty slot in the same
way.

Slot Numbering

To configure or address individual modules and ports, you must know the
corresponding slot name or number. Slot numbering is determined by the
switch model and the physical slot into which an interface module is installed .
