The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

This chapter describes the Cisco NX-OS interface commands that begin with C.
To set the carrier delay on a serial interface, use the carrier-delay command. To return to the default carrier delay value, use the no form of this command.
carrier-delay { delay-seconds | msec milliseconds }
Interface vlan configuration mode
|
|
---|---|
You can use this command on a VLAN interface.
If a link goes down and comes back up before the carrier delay timer expires, the down state is effectively filtered, and the rest of the software on the switch is not aware that a link-down event occurred. Therefore, a large carrier delay timer results in fewer link-up/link-down events being detected. Setting the carrier delay time to 0 means that every link-up/link-down event is detected.
This example shows how to change the carrier delay to 10 seconds:
This example shows how to revert to the default carrier delay value:

To enable the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) and configure CDP attributes, use the cdp command. To disable CDP or reset CDP attributes, use the no form of this command.
cdp { advertise { v1 | v2 } | enable | format device-id { mac-address | serial-number | system-name } | holdtime seconds | timer seconds }
no cdp { advertise | enable | format device-id { mac-address | serial-number | system-name } | holdtime seconds | timer seconds }

This example shows how to enable CDP on all Ethernet interfaces:

To enable the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) on an interface, use the cdp enable command. To disable CDP on the interface, use the no form of this command.

To assign and configure a physical interface to an EtherChannel, use the channel-group command. To remove the channel group configuration from the interface, use the no form of this command.
channel-group number [ force ] [ mode { active | on | passive }]
|
|
---|---|
Use this command to create a channel group that includes the interface that you are working on and to add or remove specific interfaces from the channel group. Use this command to move a port from one channel group to another. You enter the channel group that you want the port to move to; the switch automatically removes the specified port from its present channel group and adds it to the specified channel group.
Use the force keyword to force the addition of the interface into the specified channel group.
After you enable LACP globally, by using the feature lacp command, you enable LACP on each channel by configuring the channel mode as either active or passive. An EtherChannel in the on channel mode is a pure EtherChannel and can aggregate a maximum of eight ports. The EtherChannel does not run LACP.
You cannot change the mode for an existing EtherChannel or any of its interfaces if that EtherChannel is not running LACP; the channel mode remains as on. The system returns an error message if you attempt to change the mode.
Use the no form of this command to remove the physical interface from the EtherChannel. When you delete the last physical interface from an EtherChannel, the EtherChannel remains. To delete the EtherChannel completely, use the no form of the interface port-channel command.
The compatibility check includes the following operational attributes:
Use the show port-channel compatibility-parameters command to see the full list of compatibility checks that Cisco NX-OS uses.
You can only add interfaces configured with the channel mode set to on for static EtherChannels, that is, without a configured aggregation protocol. You can only add interfaces configured with the channel mode as active or passive to EtherChannels that are running LACP.
You can configure these attributes on an individual member port. If you configure a member port with an incompatible attribute, Cisco NX-OS suspends that port in the EtherChannel.
When the interface joins an EtherChannel, some of its individual parameters are overridden with the values on the EtherChannel, as follows:
Interface parameters, such as the following, remain unaffected when the interface joins or leaves a EtherChannel:
If interfaces are configured for the EtherChannel interface and a member port is removed from the EtherChannel, the configuration of the EtherChannel interface is not propagated to the member ports.
Any configuration changes that you make in any of the compatibility parameters to the EtherChannel interface are propagated to all interfaces within the same channel group as the EtherChannel (for example, configuration changes are also propagated to the physical interfaces that are not part of the EtherChannel but are part of the channel group).
This example shows how to add an interface to LACP channel group 5 in active mode:
switch(config)#
interface ethernet 1/1
switch(config-if)#
channel-group 5 mode active
switch(config-if)#
This example shows how to forcefully add an interface to the channel group 5:
switch(config)#
interface ethernet 1/1
switch(config-if)#
channel-group 5 force
switch(config-if)#

To clear the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) counters, use the clear lacp counters command.
clear lacp counters [ interface port-channel channel-num ]
(Optional) Clears the LACP counters of a specific interface. |
|
(Optional) Specifies a port channel interface. The range is from 1 to 4096. |

To clear statistical information from the access list, use the clear mac access-list counters command.
clear mac access-list counters [ name ]
(Optional) Name of a specific counter to clear. The name can be a maximum of 64 characters. |
