Usage Guidelines Attributes configured using this command are applied globally to all future switch port configurations,
even if you do not individually specify them at that time.
This command changes the configuration of the following ports to administrative mode F:
• All ports that are down.
• All F ports that are up, whose operational mode is F, and whose administrative mode is not F.
This command does not affect non-F ports that are up; however, if non-F ports are down, this command
changes the administrative mode of those ports.
Examples The following example shows how to configure port shutdown:
switch(config)# system default switchport shutdown
The following example shows how to configure the trunk mode:
switch(config)# system default switchport trunkmode auto
shutdown Disables or enables switch ports by default.
