enabled, the interface status displays as err-disabled. Once an interface goes into the err-disabled state, you
must manually reenable it or you can configure an automatic timeout recovery value. The err-disabled detection
is enabled by default for all causes. The automatic recovery is not configured by default.
When an interface is in the err-disabled state, use the errdisable detect cause command to find information
about the error.
You can configure the automatic err-disabled recovery timeout for a particular err-disabled cause by changing
the time variable.
The errdisable recovery cause command provides automatic recovery after 300 seconds. To change the
recovery period, use the errdisable recovery interval command to specify the timeout period. You can specify
30 to 65535 seconds.
If you do not enable the err-disabled recovery for the cause, the interface stays in the err-disabled state until
you enter the shutdown and no shutdown commands. If the recovery is enabled for a cause, the interface is
brought out of the err-disabled state and allowed to retry operation once all the causes have timed out. Use
the show interface status err-disabled command to display the reason behind the error.
About Port Profiles
The Cisco Nexus 3000 Series device does not support Port Profiles.
Guidelines and Limitations for Port Profiles
The Cisco Nexus 3000 Series device does not support Port Profiles.
About the Debounce Timer Parameters
The debounce timer feature is not supported on Nexus 3000.
About MTU Configuration
The Cisco Nexus 3000 Series switch does not fragment frames. As a result, the switch cannot have two ports
in the same Layer 2 domain with different maximum transmission units (MTUs). A per-physical Ethernet
interface MTU is not supported. Instead, the MTU is set according to the QoS classes. You modify the MTU
by setting Class and Policy maps.
When you show the interface settings, a default MTU of 1500 is displayed for physical Ethernet interfaces.Note
