Available logical interfaces
● VLAN
The device supports up to 127 VLAN ports.
To be able to use a VLAN, create it with the
vlan command.
● Aggregated links, aggregated ports, port channel, Etherchannel
These terms are used for the same function:
Several ports or connections between two devices are logically bundled together
(aggregated) to achieve a higher data transmission rate and a lower failure risk.
The device supports 8 link aggregations or Etherchannels each with a maximum of 8
ports per aggregation.
To add an interface to an Etherchannel, use the "
channel-group" command.
Combo port is the name for two communication ports. A combo port has the two following
jacks:
● a fixed RJ-45 port
● an SFP transceiver slot that can be equipped individually
Of these two ports, only one can ever be active.
You can set the active port with the command
media-type.
Identification of the interfaces in the command prompt of the Interface configuration mode
To configure the interface use the command interface in the global configuration mode.
Since you configure precisely one of the existing interfaces in the Interface configuration
mode, the command prompt shows not only the mode but also the name of this interface.
The command prompt is as follows:
cli(config-if-$$$)#
The placeholder
$$$ is replaced by the following name of the interface:
The placeholders $ or $-$ denote the numbering of the interface.
