Command History
Usage Guidelines The shutdown command causes a port or service instance to stop forwarding.
The no shutdown command has no effect if the port is a static-access port assigned to a VLAN that has
been deleted, suspended, or shut down. The port must first be a member of an active VLAN before it can
be re-enabled.
The shutdown command disables all functions on the specified interface or service instance.
This command also marks the interface. To see if an interface is disabled, use the show interfaces
privileged EXEC command. An interface that has been shut down is shown as administratively down in
the display.
Examples These examples show how to disable and re-enable a port and a service instance:
