Chapter 3 Configuring Ethernet Interfaces
3.1 Introduction
This chapter describes how to configure Ethernet interfaces. It includes the following sections:
• Accessing the Ethernet Configuration Menu.
• Ethernet Configuration Commands.
3.2 Accessing the Ethernet Configuration Menu
Follow these steps to access the Ethernet configuration menu:
(1)
Enter list devices at the
Config>
prompt to display a list of all the interfaces.
(2)
Enter network, followed by the name of the Ethernet interface.
Example:
*config
Config>list devices

3.3 Ethernet Configuration Commands
Certain commands are common to all device interfaces. These commands are described in
Teldat Dm772-I Com-
mon Configuration Interfaces
.
This section summarizes and then explains the Ethernet configuration commands. Enter these commands from the
ETH configuration menu.
Note
Not all commands specified in this section are available for all Ethernet interfaces. Depending on the
device, or on the interface configured, some commands may not appear.
