IES Management Interface Commands
interface
Syntax interface ip-int-name [create]
no interface ip-int-name
Context config>service>ies
Description This command creates a logical IP routing interface for an Internet Enhanced Service (IES). Once
created, attributes like an IP address and service access point (SAP) can be associated with the IP
interface.
The interface command, under the context of services, is used to create and maintain IP routing
interfaces within IES service IDs. The interface command can be executed in the context of an IES
service ID. Two SAPs can be assigned to a single group interface.
Interface names are case-sensitive and must be unique within the group of IP interfaces defined for
config router interface and config service ies interface (that is, the network core router instance).
Interface names cannot be in the dotted-decimal notation of an IP address. For example, the name
"1.1.1.1" is not allowed, but "int-1.1.1.1" is allowed. Show commands for router interfaces use either
interface names or the IP addresses. Use unique IP address values and IP address names to maintain
clarity. It could be unclear to the user if the same IP address and IP address name values are used.
Although not recommended, duplicate interface names can exist in different router instances.
When a new name is entered, a new logical router interface is created. When an existing interface
name is entered, the user enters the router interface context for editing and configuration.
There are no default IP interface names defined within the system. All IES IP interfaces must be
explicitly defined. Interfaces are created in an enabled state.
The no form of this command removes the IP interface and all the associated configurations. The
interface must be administratively shut down before issuing the no interface command. The IP
interface must be shut down before the SAP on that interface can be removed.
Default
no interface
Parameters ip-int-name — the name of the IP interface. Interface names must be unique within the group of IP
If the ip-int-name already exists, the context is changed to maintain that IP interface. If the
ip-int-name already exists as an IP interface defined within the config router commands, an error will
occur and the context will not be changed to that IP interface. If the ip-int-name does not exist, the
interface is created and the context is changed to that interface for further command processing.

interfaces defined for the network core router instance. An interface name cannot be in the form
of an IP address. If the string contains special characters (#, $, spaces, etc.), the entire string must
be enclosed within double quotes.
Values 1 to 32 characters (must start with a letter)
