Step
3.
Enable subinterface rate
statistics collection on the
Ethernet interface.
Configuring a Layer 3 Ethernet interface or
subinterface
Setting the MTU for an Ethernet interface or subinterface
The maximum transmission unit (MTU) of an Ethernet interface affects the fragmentation and
reassembly of IP packets on the interface. Typically, you do not need to modify the MTU of an
interface.
To set the MTU for an Ethernet interface or subinterface:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Enter Ethernet interface
or subinterface view.
3.
Set the MTU of the
Ethernet interface or
subinterface.
Changing the interface type
For interfaces on HIM-TS8P interface modules, you can change the interface type between POS and
GigabitEthernet. When you change the interface type, the system removes the original interface, and
then creates a new-type interface with the same number as the original interface.
Changing a Layer 3 GigabitEthernet interface to a standard POS interface
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Enter Layer 3
GigabitEthernet interface
view.
3.
Change the interface to a
standard POS interface.
Changing a standard POS interface to a Layer 3 GigabitEthernet interface
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Enter standard POS
interface view.
