Configuring and Troubleshooting Line Card Interfaces
• To address the 12-port DS3 line card, which has twelve ports, in slot 6, the valid port numbers are
0 through 11 inclusive. The serial interface slot/port configuration format range is 6/0 through 6/11.
To configure a 6-port or 12-port DS3 line card interface:
Step 1 Use the enable command to enter privileged EXEC mode. The system prompts you for a password if
one is set.
Router> enablepassword
Router#
Step 2 Enter configuration commands, one per line. Press Return after each configuration step unless otherwise
noted.
Step 3 Exit the privileged EXEC mode at any time and return to the Cisco IOS operation mode you want by
entering end or Ctrl-z at the prompt:
Router# end
Router>
Table 30 shows default values for the DS3 serial interface configuration of an enabled line card. For
more information, see the configuration examples in this section.
