PurposeCommand or Action
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
Enters interface configuration mode and specifies the
Ethernet interface name and notation rack/slot/module/port
. Possible interface types for this procedure are:
interface [TenGigE] interface-path-id
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interfaceTenGigE
0/1/0/0
Step 2
• TenGigE
Enables Layer 2 transport mode on a port and enter Layer
2 transport configuration mode.
l2transport
Example:
Step 3
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if)# l2transport
Configures Layer 2 protocol tunneling and protocol data
unit (PDU) filtering on an interface.
l2protocol {cdp | pvst | stp | vtp}{[forward |
tunnel][experimental bits]|drop}
Step 4
Example:
Possible protocols and options are:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-l2)# l2protocol stp
tunnel
• cdp—Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) tunneling and
data unit parameters.
• pvst—Configures VLAN spanning tree protocol
tunneling and data unit parameters.
Example:
• stp—spanning tree protocol tunneling and data unit
parameters.
• vtp—VLAN trunk protocol tunneling and data unit
parameters.
• tunnel—(Optional) Tunnels the packets associated
with the specified protocol.
• experimental bits—(Optional) Modifies the MPLS
experimental bits for the specified protocol.
• drop—(Optional) Drop packets associated with the
specified protocol.
Saves configuration changes.Do one of the following:
Step 5
• end • When you issue the end command, the system prompts
you to commit changes:
• or
• commit
Uncommitted changes found, commit them before
• or
exiting(yes/no/cancel)?
[cancel]:
Example:
• • Entering yes saves configuration changes to the
running configuration file, exits the configuration
session, and returns the router to XR EXEC mode.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-if-l2)# end
Example:
• Entering no exits the configuration session and
returns the router to XR EXEC mode without
committing the configuration changes.
