Naming interfaces

Addressing interfaces
The devices have several types of interface that are addressed in different ways.
Addressing physical interfaces
The following notation applies to all commands that address a physical interface:
● Enter the command "interface".
● Specify the interface type <interface-type>.
● After a space, enter the interface identifier,
<interface-id>.
The interface identifier is made up of the module number and the port number separated
by a slash.
You call a Fast Ethernet interface on the second port of module 0 with the following command:
interface fa 0/2
Addressing logical interfaces
The following notation applies to all commands that address a logical interface:
● Enter the command "interface".
● Enter the keyword for the logical interface.
– port-channel (abbreviation: po)
– vlan
● After a space, enter the number of the interface you assigned when you created it.
– <port-channel-id(1-8)>
– <vlan-id(1-4094)>
You call port channels as follows: interface po 2
You call VLAN ports as follows: interface vlan 1
