Ethernet Interface Processor (EIP) Installation and Configuration 27
Configuring the Interfaces
Following is an example of how the show interfaces command, used without variables, displays
status information (including the physical slot and port address) for each interface in the router. In
the following example, most of the status information for each interface is omitted.
Router# show int
Serial0/0 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is cxBus Serial
Internet address is 131.108.123.4, subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
(display text omitted)
Ethernet1/2 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is cxBus Ethernet, address is 0000.0c02.d0f1 (bia 0000.0c02.d0f1)
(display text omitted)
Fddi2/0 is administratively down, line protocol is down
Hardware is cxBus Fddi, address is 0000.0c02.adc2 (bia 0000.0c02.adc2)
Internet address is 131.108.31.4, subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
(display text omitted)
You can also use variables such as the interface type (Ethernet, Token Ring, FDDI, serial, or HSSI)
and the port address (slot/port) to display information about a specific interface only. The following
example shows the display for the first Ethernet port on an EIP in slot 1:
Router# show int ether 4/0
Ethernet1/0 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is cxBus Ethernet, address is 0000.0c02.d0ce (bia 0000.0c02.d0ce)
Internet address is 131.108.31.7, subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 10000 Kbit, DLY 1000 usec, rely 255/255, load 1/255
Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set, keepalive set (10 sec)
(display text omitted)
For complete command descriptions and instructions, refer to the related software documentation.
Note If you install an EIP with six ports in slot 0, you configure the ports in the following format:
0/1, 0/2, 0/3, 0/4, 0/5, and 0/6. If you install an EIP with four ports, you configure the ports in the
following format: 0/1, 0/2, 0/3, 0/4.
