There is no limit to the number of static routes on switches running the IP Lite feature set.Note
Interface Configuration Mode
The switch supports these interface types:
• Physical ports—switch ports and routed ports
• VLANs—switch virtual interfaces
• Port channels—EtherChannel interfaces
You can also configure a range of interfaces.
To configure a physical interface (port), specify the interface type, stack member number, module number,
and switch port number, and enter interface configuration mode.
• Type—Gigabit Ethernet (gigabitethernet or gi) for 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet ports, or small form-factor
pluggable (SFP) module Gigabit Ethernet interfaces (gigabitethernet or gi).
• Stack member number—The number that identifies the switch within the stack. The range is 1 to 8 for
a stack of Catalyst 2960-XR switches. The switch number is assigned the first time the switch initializes.
The default switch number, before it is integrated into a switch stack, is 1. When a switch has been
assigned a stack member number, it keeps that number until another is assigned to it.
You can use the switch port LEDs in Stack mode to identify the stack member number of a switch.
• Module number—The module or slot number on the switch (always 0).
• Port number—The interface number on the switch. The 10/100/1000 port numbers always begin at 1,
starting with the far left port when facing the front of the switch, for example, gigabitethernet1/0/1 or
gigabitethernet1/0/8. For a switch with 10/100/1000 ports and SFP module ports, SFP module ports are
numbered consecutively following the 10/100/1000 ports.
You can identify physical interfaces by physically checking the interface location on the switch. You can also
use the show privileged EXEC commands to display information about a specific interface or all the interfaces
on the switch. The remainder of this chapter primarily provides physical interface configuration procedures.
These are examples of how to identify interfaces on a stacking-capable switch:
•
To configure 10/100/1000 port 4 on a standalone switch, enter this command:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet1/0/4
•
To configure 10/100/1000 port 4 on stack member 3, enter this command:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet3/0/4
