Description
The shutdown command administratively disables an entity. When disabled, an entity does not
change, reset, or remove any configuration settings or statistics. Many entities must be explicitly
enabled using the no shutdown command.
The shutdown command administratively disables an entity. The operational state of the entity is dis-
abled as well as the operational state of any entities contained within. Many objects must be shut
down before they may be deleted.
Unlike other commands and parameters where the default state is not indicated in the configuration
file, shutdown and no shutdown are always indicated in system generated configuration files.
The no form of the command puts an entity into the administratively enabled state.

Special Cases Mirror Destination — When a mirror destination service ID is shutdown, mirrored packets associ-
ated with the service ID are not accepted from the mirror source or remote source 7750 SR7750 SR
router. The associated mirror source is put into an operationally down mode. Mirrored packets are not
transmitted out of the SAP or SDP. Each mirrored packet is silently discarded. If the mirror destina-
tion is a SAP, the SAP's discard counters are incremented.
