Information
If an IP address or VRRP group is assigned to the interface, you cannot use the switchport command
for that interface. To use the switchport command on an interface, only the no ip address and no
shutdown
statements must be listed in the show config for that command.
When you enable the switchport command, the interface is automatically added to the Default
VLAN.
To use the switchport backup interface command on a port, first execute the switchport
command on the port. For details, see the section Configuring Redundant Links in the Layer 2 chapter
of the FTOS Configuration Guide.
