Figure 6. Port Concepts in the Hybrid Model
Cisco IOS Software
The port concepts in the Cisco IOS Software model are similar to the hybrid software model. In the
Cisco IOS Software model, all system configurations are done from a single command line
interface; there is no separation between the Layer 2 and Layer 3 configuration tasks. The Layer 2
port concepts, such as access and trunk ports and Layer 3 VLAN interfaces (SVIs), still apply,
although with different syntax. Additionally, Cisco IOS Software offers the concept of a Layer 3
routed interface. Table 7 provides an overview of the different Cisco IOS Software port and
interface types. More detailed descriptions follow.
Table 7. Cisco IOS Software Port Concepts
Interface Type Purpose Sample Configuration
Routed Interface Traditional Cisco IOS Software routing
example: each port with unique network
interface gigabitethernet 1/1
ip address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.0
ipx network 1
Routed SVI Single routed interface for all of the
switch ports assigned to a VLAN
interface vlan 10
ip address 10.10.11.1 255.255.255.0
ipx network 2
Layer 2 VLAN Single Layer 2 broadcast domain vlan 10
Access Switch Port
Interface
To group Layer 2 ports into a single
VLAN
interface gigabitethernet 1/1
switchport
switchport mode access
switchport access vlan 10
Trunk Switch Port
Interface
To configure Layer 2 port belonging to
different VLANs
Interface Gigabit Ethernet 1/1
Switchport
switchport trunk encap dot1q
switchport mode dynamic desirable
Note: Although the terms interface and port are used interchangeably in this document, the
Cisco IOS Software command line refers to ports as interfaces, while the Cisco Catalyst OS
command line refers to them strictly as ports.
