Ethernet Interface Processor (EIP) Installation and Configuration 29
Configuring the Interfaces
Checking the Configuration
After configuring the new interface, use the show commands to display the status of the new
interface or all interfaces.
Command Descriptions and Examples
Following are descriptions and examples of the show commands. Descriptions are limited to fields
that are relevant for verifying the configuration.
• The show version command displays the configuration of the system hardware (the number of
each interface processor type installed), the software version, the names and sources of
configuration files, and the boot images.

• The show interfaces ethernet slot/port command displays statistics for the specific Ethernet
interface you specify by its slot/port address. If you use this command without the type and
slot/port arguments, the system will display statistics for all interfaces in the system.
