Chapter 8 Configuring Interface Characteristics
Monitoring and Maintaining the Interfaces
This example shows how to enable the small-frame arrival-rate feature, configure the port recovery time,
and configure the threshold for error disabling a port:
Switch#
configure terminal
Switch#
errdisable detect cause small-frame
Switch#
errdisable recovery cause small-frame
Switch(config)#
interface gigabitethernet0/1
Switch(config-if)#
small-frame violation rate 10000
Switch(config-if)#
end

Monitoring Interface Status
Commands entered at the privileged EXEC prompt display information about the interface, including
the versions of the software and the hardware, the configuration, and statistics about the interfaces.
lists some of these interface monitoring commands. (You can display the full list of
show
commands by using the
show ?
command at the privileged EXEC prompt.) These commands are fully
described in the
Cisco IOS Interface Command Reference, Release 12.2.
Step 3
errdisable recovery interval
interval
(Optional) Specify the time to recover from the specified
error-disabled state.
Step 4
errdisable recovery cause small-frame
(Optional) Configure the recovery time for error-disabled ports to
be automatically re-enabled after they are error disabled by the
arrival of small frames
Step 5
interface
interface-id
Enter interface configuration mode, and specify the interface to be
configured.
Step 6
small violation-rate
pps
Configure the threshold rate for the interface to drop incoming
packets and error disable the port. The range is 1 to 10,000 packets
per second (pps)
Step 7
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 8
show interfaces
interface-id
Verify the configuration.
Step 9
copy running-config startup-config
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
