Actually, you *can* use the hidden command "set interface x/x/x enable". I cannot remember the reason for making this command hidden, but I do know there was a reason. That said, there really is *no* equivalent to 'shutdown'. Even if you disable an interface, it just disables that interface's ability to pass traffic. I believe the layer-1 actually still works (lasers transmit/receive, TDM still receives). This makes for some annoying GigE interface troubleshooting if you're trying to simulate a total link loss. The only way to really "kill* the interface is to offline the PIC - not a problem for a single-port PIC, but for multi-port GEs, OCx, and DSx, well, you're SOL. -evt _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
