Chapter 1 Product Overview
Functional Overview
Port adapter slots maintain the same slot number regardless of whether other port adapters or service
adapters are installed or removed. However, when you move a port adapter to a different slot, the port
adapter slot number changes to reflect the new slot number.
You can identify port adapter slots by using software commands to display information about a specific
port adapter or service adapter or for all port adapters and service adapters in the Cisco 7206. To display
information about all port adapter slots, use the show interfaces command. To display information about
a specific port adapter slot, use the show interfaces command with the port adapter type and slot number
in the format show interfaces port-adapter-type slot- number/port number. If you abbreviate the
command (sh int) and do not specify port adapter type and slot number (or arguments), the system
interprets the command as show interfaces and displays the status of all port adapters and ports.
Following is an example of how the show interfaces command, used without arguments, displays status
information (including the physical port adapter number) for each port adapter in a Cisco 7206.
In the following example, most of the status information for each interface is omitted.
Router# show interfaces
FastEthernet0/0 is administratively up, line protocol is up
Hardware is DEC21140, address is 0000.0000.0000 (bia 0000.0000.0000)
Internet address is 10.1.1.3
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit, DLY 100 usec, rely 255/255, load 1/255
(display text omitted)
Fddi1/0 is administratively down, line protocol is down
Hardware is MIF68840_MM, address is 0000.0000.0000 (bia 0000.0000.0000)
Internet address is 10.1.1.0
MTU 4470 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit, DLY 100 usec, rely 255/255, load 1/255
(display text omitted)
Ethernet2/0 is administratively up, line protocol is up
Hardware is AmdP2, address is 0000.0000.0000 (bia 0000.0000.0000)
Internet address is 10.1.1.7
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit, DLY 1000 usec, rely 255/255, load 1/255
(display text omitted)
You can also use arguments such as the interface type (Ethernet, Token Ring, FDDI, and so forth) and
the port address (slot-number/port-number) to display information about a specific interface only.
The following example shows the display for the first port on the Token Ring port adapter in port adapter
slot 3:
Router# show interfaces tokenring 3/0
TokenRing3/0 is administratively down, line protocol is down
Hardware is IBM2692, address is 0000.0000.0000 (bia 0000.0000.0000)
Internet address is 10.1.1.8
MTU 4464 bytes, BW 1600 Kbit, DLY 630 usec, rely 255/255, load 1/255
Encapsulation SNAP, loopback not set, keepalive set (10 sec)
ARP type: SNAP, ARP Timeout 04:00:00
Ring speed: 16 Mbps
