Enabling a Physical Interface

After determining the type of physical interfaces available, to enable and configure the interfaces, enter
INTERFACE mode by using the interface interface slot/port command.
1. Enter the keyword interface then the type of interface and slot/port information.
CONFIGURATION mode
interface interface
• For the Management interface on the RPM, enter the keyword ManagementEthernet then the
slot/port information.
• For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet then the slot/port
information.
• For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/port
information.
2. Enable the interface.

no shutdown
To confirm that the interface is enabled, use the show config command in INTERFACE mode. To leave
INTERFACE mode, use the exit command or end command. You cannot delete a physical interface.

Physical Interfaces

The Management Ethernet interface is a single RJ-45 Fast Ethernet port on each unit of the Z9000
The interface provides dedicated management access to the system.
Stack—unit interfaces support Layer 2 and Layer 3 traffic over the 10/100/1000 and 10-Gigabit Ethernet
interfaces. Synchronous optical network technologies interfaces with point-to-point protocol (PPP)
encapsulation support Layer 3 traffic. These interfaces can also become part of virtual interfaces such as
virtual local area networks (VLANs) or port channels.
For more information about VLANs, refer to
