Global configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Use
ethernet lmi global
command to enable E-LMI globally. Use
ethernet lmi ce
command to enable
the switch as E-LMI CE device.
Ethernet LMI is disabled by default on an interface and must be explicitly enabled by entering the
ethernet lmi interface
interface configuration command. The
ethernet lmi global
command enables
Ethernet LMI on all interfaces for an entire device. The benefit of this command is that you can enable
Ethernet LMI on all interfaces with one command instead of enabling Ethernet LMI separately on each
interface. To enable the interface in CE mode, you must also enter the
ethernet lmi ce
global
configuration command.
To disable Ethernet LMI on a specific interface after you have entered the
ethernet lmi global
command,
enter the
no ethernet lmi
interface
interface configuration command.
The sequence in which you enter the
ethernet lmi interface
interface configuration and
ethernet lmi
global
global configuration commands is important. The latest command entered overrides the prior
command entered.
Note
For information about the
ethernet lmi
interface configuration command, see the

To enable the switch as an Ethernet LMI CE device, you must enter both the
ethernet lmi global
and
ethernet lmi ce
commands. By default Ethernet LMI is disabled.
ce
Enables the switch as an E-LMI CE device.
Note
The switch can only be an E-LMI CE device.
