Description
Using the shutdown command, you can shut down an interface. Using the undo
shutdown command, you can enable an interface.
This command takes effect not only on physical interfaces but also on tunnel and
MFR interfaces.
In some circumstances, such as when you are modifying the operating parameters
of an interface, the modification do not take effect immediately. Rather, you must
shut down the interface and re-enable it.
For a related command, see display interface.
