Chapter 3 Configuring General Router Features
Displaying the Available Management Ethernet Interfaces
Specifying the Management Ethernet Interface Name in CLI Commands
Before you can configure the Management Ethernet interface, you must know the Management Ethernet
interface name, which is defined using the following syntax: typerack/slot/module/port. Table 3-6
describes the Management Ethernet interface name syntax.
Table 3-7 shows examples of Management Ethernet interface names for a single-shelf system.
Displaying the Available Management Ethernet Interfaces
To display the router interfaces, enter the show interfaces brief command in EXEC mode:
RP/0/0/CPU0:router# show interfaces brief

Table 3-6 Management Ethernet Interface Name Syntax Description
Syntax Component Description
type Interface type for a Management Ethernet port is “MgmtEth.”
rack Chassis number of the rack. In a single-shelf system, the rack is always
“0”.
slot Physical slot of the RP or DRP on which the interface is located. For a
Cisco XR 12000 Series Router, the PRPs may be installed in slots 0
through 15, depending on the router model.
module On an RP, the module is “CPU0”. DRPs have two processors, so the
module is either “CPU0” and “CPU1”.
port On Cisco XR 12000 Series Routers, there are three Ethernet ports on
PRP-2 cards. The Ethernet ports are labeled ETH 0, ETH 1, and ETH 2.
For the ETH 0 port, specify 0; for the ETH 1 port, specify 1; and for the
ETH 2 port, specify 2.
Specify 0 for the MGMT ETH interface on an RP or DRP.
