switchport
Place an interface in Layer 2 mode.
Syntax
switchport [[backup interface {interface | port-channel number}] | mode
private-vlan {host | promisucous | trunk}]
To remove an interface from Layer 2 mode and place it in Layer 3 mode, enter the no switchport command.
If a switchport backup interface is configured, first remove the backup configuration. To remove a switchport
backup interface, enter the no switchport backup interface command.
Parameters
backup (OPTIONAL) Use this option to configure a redundant Layer 2 link without using Spanning
Tree. The keyword backup configures a backup port so that if the primary port fails, the
backup port changes to the up state. If the primary later comes up, it becomes the
backup.
