Usage Guidelines
The
shutdown
command for a port causes it to stop forwarding. You can enable the port with the
no
shutdown
command.
The
no shutdown
command has no effect if the port is a static-access port assigned to a VLAN that has
been deleted, suspended, or shut down. The port must first be a member of an active VLAN before it can
be re-enabled.
The
shutdown
command disables all functions on the specified interface.
This command also marks the interface as unavailable. To see if an interface is disabled, use the
show
interfaces
privileged EXEC command. An interface that has been shut down is shown as
administratively down in the display.
Examples

shutdown
Switch(config)#
interface gigabitethernet1/0/2

no shutdown
You can verify your settings by entering the
show interfaces
privileged EXEC command.
