Usage Guidelines This command can only be used when the port is shut down. If the link is active on a CPE device port,
the switch detects the CPE device type and automatically modifies the configuration. You cannot change
the CPE device type on active links. For example, if the active CPE device type is cisco575-lre, you
cannot change the type to cisco585-lre or unknown.
Examples This example shows how to set the CPE device type to cisco585-lre while the link is down:
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface longreachethernet0/2
Switch(config-if)# cpe type cisco585-lre
