Generic Commands
shutdown
Syntax [no] shutdown
Context config>router>interface ip-int-name
Description The shutdown command administratively disables the entity. When disabled, an entity does not
change, reset, or remove any configuration settings or statistics. Many entities must be explicitly
enabled using the no shutdown command.
The shutdown command administratively disables an entity. The operational state of the entity is
disabled as well as the operational state of any entities contained within. Many objects must be shut
down before they may be deleted.
Unlike other commands and parameters where the default state is not indicated in the configuration
file, shutdown and no shutdown are always indicated in system generated configuration files.
The no form of the command puts an entity into the administratively enabled state.
