2. Enter the interface command and then enter an interface type and interface number that is available on the
switch.
The prompt changes to include the designated interface and slot/port number. For example:

FTOS(conf-if-
gi-0/0)#

FTOS(conf-if-
fo-0/0)#
Forty-Gigabit Ethernet interface then slot/port information
FTOS(conf-if-
lo-0)#
Loopback interface number
FTOS(conf-if-
nu-0)#
Null Interface then zero
FTOS(conf-if-
po-0)#
Port-channel interface number
FTOS(conf-if-
vl-0)#
VLAN Interface then VLAN number (range 1–4094)
FTOS(conf-if-
ma-0/0)#
Management Ethernet interface then slot/port information
FTOS(conf-if-
tu-0)#
