Usage Guidelines You must enter the switchport command without any keywords to configure the LAN interface as a
Layer 2 interface before you can enter the switchport autostate exclude command. This action is
required only if you have not entered the switchport command for the interface.
The switchport command is not used on platforms that do not support Cisco-routed ports. All physical
Note
ports on such platforms are assumed to be Layer 2-switched interfaces.
The switchport autostate exclude command marks the port to be excluded from the interface VLAN
up calculation when there are multiple ports in the VLAN.
The show interface interface switchport command displays the autostate mode if the mode has been
set. If the mode has not been set, the autostate mode is not displayed.
