By default, this parameter is enabled.įor information on configuring the MDIX parameter, see the “Configuring the MDIX Parameter” section. This parameter applies only to copper interfaces. The medium dependent interface crossover (MDIX) parameter enables or disables the detection of a crossover connection between devices. To identify the physical port for an interface, you can activate the beacon parameter for the interface.įor information on configuring the beacon parameter, see the “Configuring the Beacon Mode” section. The beacon mode allows you to identify a physical port by flashing its link state LED with a green light. For information on configuring this parameter for other interfaces, see the “Configuring the Description” section. Using a unique name for each interface allows you to quickly identify the interface when you are looking at a listing of multiple interfaces.įor information on setting the description parameter for port-channel interfaces, see the “Configuring a Port-Channel Description” section. This section includes the following topics:įor the Ethernet and management interfaces, you can configure the description parameter to provide a recognizable name for the interface. Information About the Basic Interface Parameters Note To configure the parameters that are specifically used for Layer 2 interfaces (access or trunking interfaces), see Chapter3, “Configuring Layer 2 Interfaces” To configure parameters that are specifically used for Layer 3 interfaces (routed interfaces, subinterfaces, VLAN interfaces, loopback interfaces, and IP tunnels), see Chapter4, “Configuring Layer 3 Interfaces” This chapter includes the following sections:
