Chapter 19      Configuring Layer 2 Ethernet Interfaces
Configuring Ethernet Interfaces for Layer 2 Switching
This example shows how to configure the Fast Ethernet interface 5/6 as an access port in VLAN 200:
Switch# configure terminal 
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# interface fastethernet 5/6 
Switch(config-if)# shutdown 
Switch(config-if)# switchport mode access 
Switch(config-if)# switchport access vlan 200 
Switch(config-if)# no shutdown 
Switch(config-if)# end 
Switch# exit 
This example shows how to verify the running configuration:
Switch# show running-config interface fastethernet 5/6

end
This example shows how to verify the switch port configuration:
Switch# show interface fastethernet 5/6 switchport
Name:Fa5/6
Switchport:Enabled
Administrative Mode:dynamic auto
Operational Mode:static access
Administrative Trunking Encapsulation:negotiate
Operational Trunking Encapsulation:native
Negotiation of Trunking:On
Access Mode VLAN:1 (default)
Trunking Native Mode VLAN:1 (default)
Administrative private-vlan host-association:none
Administrative private-vlan mapping:none
Operational private-vlan:none
Trunking VLANs Enabled:ALL
Pruning VLANs Enabled:2-1001

Clearing Layer 2 Configuration
To clear the Layer 2 configuration on an interface, perform this task:
Step 8
Switch# show running-config interface 
{fastethernet | gigabitethernet} slot/port 
Displays the running configuration of the interface.
Step 9
Switch# show interfaces [{fastethernet | 
gigabitethernet | tengigabitethernet} 
slot/port] switchport 
Displays the switch port configuration of the interface.
Command Purpose
Command Purpose
Step 1
Switch(config)# default interface {fastethernet | 
gigabitethernet | tengigabitethernet} slot/port 
Specifies the interface to clear.
Step 2
Switch(config-if)# end 
Exits interface configuration mode.
