Configuring Interfaces
Shutting Down an Interface
To shut down an interface, use the admin-shutdown or shut command.
Caution Shutting down an interface terminates all connections to the interface.
For example:
To shut down interface e3 on the CSS 11501 with the admin-shutdown
command, enter:
(config-if[e3])# admin-shutdown
To shut down interface e3 on the CSS 11501 with the shut command, enter:
(config-if[e3])# shut
When you use the shut command, the CSS changes the shut command to the
admin-shutdown command in the running configuration.
Note If you configure the redundancy-phy command on an interface and then disable
the interface using the admin-shutdown command, the master CSS fails over to
the backup CSS. To prevent the CSS from failing over when you administratively
disable the interface, remove the redundancy-phy command by entering no
redundancy-phy before you enter the admin-shutdown command on that
interface.
Shutting Down All Interfaces
To shut down all interfaces simultaneously, use the admin-shutdown command.
This command is only available in the SuperUser mode. The admin-shutdown
command provides a quick way to shut down all physical devices in the CSS
except the console and Ethernet management ports.
Caution Shutting down an interface terminates all connections to the interface.
