If you repeatedly insert and remove different subcards or interface cards to create or delete a large

number of logical interfaces, the interface indexes will be used up, which will result in interface creation
failures. To avoid such a case, you can clear all 16-bit interface indexes saved but not used in the current

system in user view.
After the preceding operation,

For a re-created interface, the new interface index might not be consistent with the original one.

For existing interfaces, their interface indexes remain unchanged.

Follow these steps to clear the 16-bit interface indexes not used in the current system:

To do…

Use the command…

Remarks

Clear the 16-bit interface indexes

Required
Available in user view.

CAUTION:

A confirmation is required when you execute this command. If you fail to make a confirmation within 30
seconds or enter N to cancel the operation, the command will not be executed.
