SHUTDOWN

Syntax

shutdown

Parameters

None

Mode

Port Interface mode

Description

Use this command to disable ports. When you disable a port, the port
status changes to the link-down state and the port does not forward traffic.
You may want to disable unused ports to secure them from unauthorized
use. In addition, you want to disable ports that are having problems with
network cables or their link partners. The default setting for the ports is
enabled.

To reactivate a port, refer to “NO SHUTDOWN” on page 254.

Confirmation Command

“SHOW INTERFACE” on page 260

Example

This example disables ports 1.0.15 and 1.0.16:

awplus> enable
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# interface port1.0.15,port1.0.16
awplus(config-if)# shutdown
