13 • Ethernet port configuration
This procedure describes how to configure the medium for the Ethernet port on slot and port
Mode: Configure
Note
The following restrictions apply:
•
Model ....Both Ethernet ports support 10 Mbps half-duplex
•
Ethernet port 0/1 only supports 10 Mbps half-duplex, other settings are
ignored
•
Ethernet port 0/1 supports 10 Mbps half-duplex.
Example:
Configuring medium for an Ethernet port
The following example shows how to configure medium auto-sense for the Ethernet port on slot 0 and port 0
of an IPLink device.
IPLink(cfg)#port ethernet 0 0
IPLink(prt-eth)[0/0]#medium auto
Configuring Ethernet encapsulation type for an Ethernet port
This procedure describes how to configure the encapsulation type to IP for the Ethernet port on slot and port.
Mode: Configure
Example:
Configuring Ethernet encapsulation type for an Ethernet port
The following example shows how to configure the encapsulation type to IP for the Ethernet port on slot 0 and
port 0 of an IPLink series device.
IPLink(cfg)#port ethernet 0 0
IPLink(prt-eth)[0/0]#encapsulation ip
Binding an Ethernet port to an IP interface
You must bind the Ethernet port to an existing IP interface. When executing the
bind
command, the
requested interface must exist. If no IP context is given, the system attaches the interface to the default IP con-
text known as router.
