3.2.1 Entering Ethernet Port View

Before you can configure an Ethernet port, you must enter its view first.
Perform the following configuration in system view.
Table 3-1 Enter Ethernet port view
Enter Ethernet port view
Note:
The following are the interface numbering conventions for the AR 18-22-24 Router and
the 8LS/16LS interface module:
Given the AR 18-22-24, Ethernet slot/1 through Ethernet slot/24 are Layer 2
Ethernet ports. Ethernet slot/0 is a layer 3 virtual interface; you can assign an IP
address to it and configure subinterfaces on it. The slot argument must be set to 3.
Given the 8LS/16LS or FIC-8LS/FIC-16LS on the AR 28/46, Ethernet slot/0/0
through Ethernet slot/0/7 or through Ethernet slot/0/5 are Layer 2 Ethernet ports.
Ethernet slot/0/8 or Ethernet slot/0/16 is a layer 3 virtual interface; you can assign an
IP address to it and configure subinterfaces on it. The slot argument is the number
of the actual slot that holds the interface module/card.
The vlan-type dot1q vid 1 command is not available on the subinterfaces on layer
3 virtual interfaces. Thus, these subinterfaces cannot forward packets for VLAN 1.

3.2.2 Enabling/Shutting Down the Ethernet Port

After you finish the configuration of a port, you may use the undo shutdown command
to enable it. If you want to disable the port to forward data, you may shut it down using
the shutdown command.
Perform the following configuration in Ethernet port view.
