Displays running configuration information about the selected interface when one
is specified. The interfaces can be ports, VLANs, or SVLANs.
Note
:
For the 5400zl, 3800, and 8200zl switches, when the command is executed
in enhanced secure mode the following prompt displays:
Do you want to show sensitive information(y/n)?
If ‘y’ is entered, the normal command output is displayed on the console. If ‘n’ is
entered, all the sensitive information is hidden and will be displayed as asterisks
(‘*****’). The default option is ‘n’ when interactive mode is disabled. For more
information, see the chapter "Secure Mode (5400zl, 3800, and 8200zl)" in the
Access Security Guide for your switch.
structured: Groups the config command information output in a logical manner.
When the structured option is entered, the output displays the configuration settings,
such as spanning-tree, followed by a list of all the switch interfaces showing any
configured settings for each interface. The VLAN configuration information is
displayed after the interface information.
When the structured option is not entered, the output first displays only the interfaces
that have configuration settings. The other settings, such as spanning-tree, are
displayed after the interfaces, and then the VLAN configuration information is
displayed.
NOTE: The show running config interface/vlan/svlan command output cannot be downloaded
to the switch; it will not download correctly. Copying and pasting the displayed configuration
information into the switch configuration is not supported. This feature only provides a display of
all the configuration information for a selected interface or range of interfaces in a single view.
