32 Second-Generation Fast Ethernet Interface Processor (FEIP2) Installation and Configuration
Configuring the Fast Ethernet Interfaces
Figure 23 FE Interface Port Address Example (Cisco 7505 with FEIP2-2TX Shown)
You can identify interface ports by physically checking the slot/adapter/interface port location on the
back of the router or by using software commands to display information about a specific interface
or all interfaces in the router.
Configuring Interfaces—Descriptions and Examples
This section describes a basic configuration. Press the Return key after each step unless otherwise
noted. At any time you can exit the privileged level and return to the user level by entering disable
at the prompt as follows:
Router# disable
Router>
Following is a basic configuration procedure:
Step 1 At the privileged-level prompt, enter configuration mode and specify that the console
terminal is the source of the configuration subcommands, as follows:
Router# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#
Step 2 At the prompt, specify the first interface to configure by entering the subcommand
interface, followed by the type (fastethernet) and slot/port (interface processor slot
number/0). The example that follows is for the interface port of the first FE interface port,
on an FEIP2 in interface processor slot 1:
Router(config)# interface fa 1/0/0
Step 3 If IP routing is enabled on the system, you can assign an IP address and subnet mask to
the interface with the ip address configuration subcommand, as in the following
example:
Router(config-int)# ip address 1.1.1.10 255.255.255.0

Note: The MII and RJ-45 interface ports on each port adapter
are both numbered as interface port 0. Only one of them can
be used on each port adapter, at one time.
