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.

Ethernet
Ethernet
The Configuration > Interface > Ethernet page displays a list of Ethernet interfaces and their details that are configured for the device.
Editing Ethernet Settings
On the Configuration > Interface > Ethernet page, click the interface name.
In the Edit Ethernet Settings window that is displayed, you can edit the following settings:
Choose a switch mode for the interface. To allow a trunk to be dynamically established between two switch interfaces, choose dynamic auto or dynamic desirable.
If you choose access as the switch mode, enter the access VLAN ID in the Access VLAN field.
If you choose trunk as the switch mode, enter the VLAN IDs that you want to assign as trunk links. To allow all VLAN IDs as trunk links, set the Allowed VLANs to All. Specify a native VLAN.
If you choose dynamic auto or dynamic desirableas the switch mode, enter the access VLAN ID. Enter the VLAN IDs you want to assign as trunk links. To allow all VLAN IDs as trunk links, set the Allowed VLANs to All. Specify a native VLAN.
To enable Port Fast, set the field to On.
To enable DHCP snooping for the interface, set the DHCP Snooping field to Enabled.
To enable Layer 3 address for the interface, set the Enable Layer 3 Address field to Enabled and then specify the IPv4 or IPv6 address as required.
Choose a storm control setting. Storm control prevents traffic on a LAN from being disrupted by a broadcast, multicast, or unicast storm on a port. Enable Storm Control Shutdown to error-disable the port during a storm and enable Storm Control Trap to generate an SNMP trap when a storm is detected.
Specify the threshold level for broadcast, multicast, and unicast traffic on the port-channel. For example, to enable broadcast address storm control on a port to a level of 20 percent, enter 20 and specify the value as either BPS (bits per second) or PPS (packets per second) in the Broadcast Threshold Level field.
In the Policy Management section, choose an Auto QoS policy for the Ethernet interface:
classify - police—Generates a QoS configuration for untrusted interfaces. The configuration places a service-policy on the interface to classify traffic coming from untrusted desktops/devices and mark them accordingly. The service-policies generated do police.
trust-cos—Class of service.
trust-dscp—Differentiated service code point.
video cts—A port connected to a Cisco Telepresence system. QoS labels of incoming packets are only trusted (conditional trust through CDP) when a Cisco TelePresence is detected.
video ip-camera—A port connected to a Cisco video surveillance camera. QoS labels of incoming packets are only trusted (conditional trust through CDP) when a Cisco camera is detected.
video media-player—A port connected to a CDP-capable Cisco digital media player. QoS labels of incoming packets are only trusted (conditional trust through CDP) when a digital media player is detected.
voip cisco-phone—If the port is connected to a Cisco IP Phone, the QoS labels of incoming packets are only trusted (conditional trust through CDP) when the telephone is detected.
From the User Defined QoS drop-down list, choose a QoS policy to apply to the interface. This QoS policy is defined on the Configuration > Wireless > QoS Wireless page.
From the Interface Template drop-down list, choose a template for the interface.
In the ACL section, choose the outbound and inbound ACLs to apply to ingress and egress traffic on the interface.
In the Channel-Group field, enter the channel group number to which the interface belongs.
Set the DHCP Relay Information field to Enabled. By default this field is set to Disabled.
In the IPv6 section, choose the outbound and inbound ACLs.
Specify a policy in theRaGaurd Policy field. RA Guard is a Unified Wireless solution to drop router advertisement filtering (RA) from wireless clients. You must configure a separate RA guard for a port.
Specify a policy in theRaGaurd Throttle Policy field. RA Throttle Policy enables you to limit the amount of multicast router advertisements (RA) circulating on the wireless network. You must configure a separate RA throttle policy for a port.
