CAUTION:
•
After you change the link mode of an Ethernet interface, all the settings of the Ethernet interface are
restored to their defaults under the new link mode.
• The link mode configuration for an Ethernet interface in system view and in interface view supersedes
each other.
Configuring a Layer 2 Ethernet interface
Layer 2 Ethernet interface configuration task list
Complete these tasks to configure an Ethernet interface operating in bridge mode:
Task Remarks
Configuring a port group Optional
Setting speed options for auto negotiation on an Ethernet
interface
Optional
Applicable to 100-Mbps or 1000-Mbps Layer
2 Ethernet interfaces
Configuring storm suppression for an Ethernet interface Optional
Enabling forwarding of jumbo frames Optional
Configuring the MDI mode for an Ethernet interface Optional
Configuring a port group
The SR8800 routers allow you to configure some functions on multiple interfaces at a time. For example,
you can configure a traffic suppression threshold (see “ Setting speed options for auto negotiation on an
Ethernet interface ”) for multiple interfaces in bulk by assigning these interfaces to a port group.
A port group is created manually and the settings you made on it apply to all group member interfaces.
Note that even though the settings are made on the port group, they are saved on an interface basis
rather than on a port group basis. Thus, you can only view the settings in the view of each interface with
the display current-configuration command or the display this command.
To configure a manual port group:
Step Command
1. Enter system view. system-view
2. Create a manual port group and enter
manual port group view.
port-group manual port-group-name
3. Add Ethernet interfaces to the manual port
group.
