For some devices, you need to restart the device or hot swap the interface card (if the interface card
supports hot swapping) after working mode switch to make the newly configured working mode take
effect.
Clearing the 16-bit Interface Indexes Not Used in the Current System
In practical networks, the network management software requires the device to provide a uniform,
stable 16-bit interface index. That is, a one-to-one relationship should be kept between the interface
name and the interface index in the same device.
For the purpose of the stability of an interface index, the system will save the 16-bit interface index when
a card or logical interface is removed.
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 above operation,
z
For a re-created interface, the new interface index may not be consistent with the original one.
z
For existing interfaces, their interface indexes remain unchanged.
Follow these steps to clear the 16-bit interface indexes not used in the current system:
