Bulk configuring interfaces You can enter interface range view to bulk configure multiple interfaces with the same feature instead of configuring them one by one. For example, you can execute the shutdown command in interface range view to shut down a range of interfaces. Configuration restrictions and guidelines When you bulk configure interfaces in interface range view, follow these restrictions and guidelines: •...
Step Command Remarks • interface range { interface-type interface-number [ to interface-type By using the interface range name interface-number ] } &<1-24> command, you assign a name to an Enter interface range • interface range and can specify this interface range name name view.
Configuring Ethernet interfaces Your device supports the following types of Ethernet interfaces: • Layer 2 Ethernet interfaces—Physical Ethernet interfaces operating at the data link layer (Layer 2) to switch packets. • Layer 3 Ethernet interfaces—Physical Ethernet interfaces operating at the network layer (Layer 3) to route packets.
• Use the display interface command to determine which port (fiber or copper) of each combo interface is active: If the copper port is active, the output includes "Media type is twisted pair, Port hardware type is 1000_BASE_T." If the fiber port is active, the output does not include this information. Also, you can use the display this command in the view of each combo interface to display the combo interface configuration: If the fiber port is active, the combo enable fiber command exists in the output.
Split the 40-GE interface into By default, a 40-GE interface is not four 10-GE breakout using tengige split and operates as a single interfaces. interface. Combining four 10-GE breakout interfaces into a 40-GE interface IMPORTANT: For this configuration to survive a reboot, save the configuration before rebooting the switch. If you need higher bandwidth on a single interface, you can combine the four 10-GE breakout interfaces into a 40-GE interface.

Step Command Remarks • the Ethernet interface. The duplex mode is full for 100-GE, 10-GE and 40-GE interfaces. • The duplex mode is auto for other Ethernet interfaces. For interfaces at two ends of physical link to operate correctly, configure the same duplex mode for them.
Do not use the shutdown command on an interface configured with the loopback command. Configuring the link mode of an Ethernet interface CAUTION: After you change the link mode of an Ethernet interface, all commands (except the shutdown and combo enable commands) on the Ethernet interface are restored to their defaults in the new link mode.
By default, an Ethernet interface allows jumbo frames within 9126 bytes to pass through. Configure jumbo frame jumboframe enable [ size ] support. If you set the size argument multiple times, the most recent configuration takes effect. Configuring physical state change suppression on an Ethernet interface IMPORTANT: Do not enable this feature on an interface with RRPP, spanning tree protocols, or Smart Link...

If an interface is not dampened, its state changes are reported. For each state change, the system also generates an SNMP trap and log message. After a flapping interface is dampened, it does not report its state changes to the CPU. For state change events, the interface only generates SNMP trap and log messages.
• The dampening command and the link-delay command cannot be configured together on an interface. • The dampening command does not take effect on the administratively down events. When you execute the shutdown command, the penalty restores to 0, and the interface reports the down event to the upper-layer protocols.
Configuration procedure To enable loopback testing on an Ethernet interface: Step Command Remarks Enter system view. system-view Enter Ethernet interface interface interface-type view. interface-number By default, loopback testing is disabled on an Ethernet interface. Enable loopback testing. loopback { external | internal } The external keyword is not supported in the current software version.

SF interface modules: − LSU1QGC4SF0. − LSU1TGS48SF0. − LSUM2TGS16SF0. • 100-GE interfaces do not support PFC. • To perform PFC on an Ethernet interface, make sure the following conditions are met: PFC is configured in both system view and Ethernet interface view. The 802.1p priority list specified in Ethernet interface view is a sublist of the 802.1p priority list specified in system view.
Step Command Remarks Enable PFC for 802.1p priority-flow-control no-drop By default, PFC is disabled for all priorities. dot1p dot1p-list 802.1p priorities.

• For the traffic suppression result to be determined, do not configure storm control together with storm suppression for the same type of traffic. For more information about storm control, see "Configuring storm control on an Ethernet interface." • The configured suppression threshold value in pps or kbps might be converted into a multiple of a step supported by the chip.
You can configure an Ethernet interface to output threshold event traps and log messages when monitored traffic meets one of the following conditions: • Exceeds the upper threshold. • Drops below the lower threshold. Both storm suppression and storm control can suppress storms on an interface. Storm suppression uses the chip to suppress traffic.
A physical Ethernet interface has eight pins, each of which plays a dedicated role. For example, pins 1 and 2 transmit signals, and pins 3 and 6 receive signals. You can use both crossover and straight-through Ethernet cables to connect copper Ethernet interfaces. To accommodate these types of cables, a copper Ethernet interface can operate in one of the following Medium Dependent Interface-Crossover (MDIX) modes: •...
Perform a test for the cable connected to the virtual-cable-test Ethernet interface. Enabling bridging on an Ethernet interface When a packet arrives at an interface, the switch looks up the destination MAC address of the packet in the MAC address table. •...

Configuring loopback, null, and inloopback interfaces This chapter describes how to configure a loopback interface, a null interface, and an inloopback interface. Configuring a loopback interface A loopback interface is a virtual interface. The physical layer state of a loopback interface is always up unless the loopback interface is manually shut down.
applying an ACL. For example, if you specify a null interface as the next hop of a static route to a network segment, any packets routed to the network segment are dropped. To configure a null interface: Step Command Remarks Enter system view.
