in global configuration mode:
Monitoring and Maintaining the PA-12E/2FE Port Adapter
After configuring the new interface, you can display its status and verify other information. To display
information about the PA-12E/2FE port adapter, perform the following tasks in EXEC mode:
Step 8
Repeat Step 1 through Step 7 for each interface.
Step 9
copy running-config startup-config
Saves the new configuration to memory.
Command Purpose
