The speed 1000 command is only applicable to GigabitEthernet ports.
Combo Port
Configuration
Introduction to Combo port
A Combo port can operate as either an optical port or an electrical port. Inside the 
device there is only one forwarding interface. For a Combo port, the electrical port 
and the corresponding optical port are TX-SFP multiplexed. You can specify a 
Combo port to operate as an electrical port or an optical port. That is, a Combo 
port cannot operate as both an electrical port and an optical port simultaneously.
For ease of management, a Combo port can be categorized into one of the 
following two types:
■ Single Combo port: the two Ethernet interfaces in the device panel correspond 
to only one interface view, in which state on the two interfaces can be realized. 
A single Combo port can be a Layer 2 Ethernet interface or a Layer 3 Ethernet 
interface.
■ Dual-Combo port: the two Ethernet interfaces in the device panel correspond 
to two interface views. State switchover can be realized in user’s own interfaces 
view. A double Combo port can only be a layer 2 Ethernet interface.

Currently, only Dual-Combo ports are supported on the Switch 4800G.
Configuring Combo port state
Follow these steps to configure the state for a double Combo port:

By default, the description string is 
“interface index + Interface”. 
Set the duplex mode  duplex { auto | full | half } Optional
auto by default. 
Set the transmission

auto } 
Optional
auto by default. 
Shut down the Ethernet 
port 
shutdown Optional
By default, an Ethernet port is in up 
state.
To bring up an Ethernet port, use the 
undo shutdown command.
